Telangana has received 31 per cent excess rainfall due to an extended southwest monsoon, leading to flash floods and crop damage across several districts. While kharif crops like paddy and cotton suffered, the rains have replenished groundwater and reservoirs, promising a well-supported rabi season.

Heavy inflows from Himayatsagar and Osmansagar reservoirs triggered widespread flooding along the Musi River in Hyderabad, submerging homes and cutting off key roads and bridges. Over a dozen colonies were affected, including Shankernagar, Moosanagar, and Asadbabanagar. The Mahatma Gandhi Bus Station was inundated, forcing a halt in services.

Floodwater from the Musi River entered Hyderabad’s MGBS bus station on Saturday night, leaving several passengers stranded. Authorities released water from Osmansagar and Himayatsagar, causing inundation in Bandlaguda Jagir colonies. DRF and SDRF teams carried out rescue and relief operations.

Following heavy rainfall and rising inflows into Himayatsagar and Osmansagar, GHMC evacuated 55 residents from flood-prone areas near Shivaji Bridge and Bhoo Laxmi Temple. The evacuees were relocated to Gode-ki-Khabar Community Hall.

With rising inflows into Himayat Sagar, HMWSSB issued its fourth flood warning in four days, cautioning residents along the Musi River. The water board said releases will be increased to 6,000 cusecs, while GHMC monitors Hussain Sagar levels.

HMWSSB has opened floodgates at Osmansagar, Himayatsagar and Manjeera Barrage following heavy inflows from monsoon rains. Officials said inflows were recorded earlier than usual, while Hussain Sagar also received high inflows. Water levels in all reservoirs are nearing full capacity

Heavy floodwaters from Himayatsagar caused garbage and plastic waste to accumulate at Hyderabad’s Moosarambagh bridge, obstructing the Musi River’s flow and affecting nearby low-lying areas. HYDRAA, along with DRF, MET, and GHMC, launched a cleanup operation using heavy machinery, successfully restoring the river flow.

Inflows into Himayatsagar and Osman Sagar reservoirs in Hyderabad have declined, providing relief to residents along the Musi river. HMWSSB has shut eight floodgates, while inundation at Moosarambagh and Puranapul bridges led to traffic diversions

Nine floodgates of Himayathsagar were lifted on Thursday, releasing surplus water and causing inundation at Puranapul. Officials say there is no immediate threat to nearby colonies but have prepared evacuation plans if the situation worsens

Heavy rains triggered a rare surge in Himayatsagar inflows, peaking at 17,500 cusecs on Thursday morning. Authorities issued two flood warnings and opened eight gates to release water into Musi River, as inflows poured in from catchment areas.

Cyberabad Police issued an advisory after heavy water flow from Himayathsagar Lake flooded the ORR service road at Exit 17. Traffic diversions have been arranged, and motorists are urged to avoid the stretch for safety.

HMWSSB officials opened the third floodgate of Himayatsagar reservoir at 10 am on Friday, releasing surplus water into the Musi River. Three gates, each lifted to one-foot height, are regulating an outflow of 1,044 cusecs against 4,000 cusecs inflow.

Following heavy rains in Hyderabad, the HMWSSB announced that one floodgate of Himayatsagar reservoir will be opened at 10 pm on Thursday. Officials and the public have been advised to stay alert and take necessary precautions

The HMWSSB has warned of a possible opening of floodgates at the Himayatsagar reservoir due to rising inflows from continuous rainfall in the catchment areas. Authorities, including revenue and police departments, have been advised to implement flood standard operating procedures (SoPs) and prepare for potential downstream impact.

Heavy rains over the past week have significantly increased water levels in Hyderabad’s twin reservoirs, Osmansagar and Himayatsagar. With inflows continuing from their catchment areas, officials are closely monitoring the reservoirs and preparing for possible overflow scenarios.

Following heavy rainfall in upstream areas, fresh inflows were recorded in Osmansagar and Himayatsagar reservoirs near Hyderabad. Authorities are monitoring the situation as water levels steadily increase.

In the next few weeks, the water board will also make arrangements to supply drinking water through submersible pumps.

Reviewing section-wise water supply along with tanker bookings and deliveries at a meeting held here on Saturday, MAUD Principal Secretary M. Dana Kishore directed officers to ensure that there were no disruptions in water supply.

The State will be writing to Ministry of Jal Shakti seeking immediate steps to stop release of two TMC water allotted of late to AP and spare whatever little is left in the project only for meeting the drinking water needs in Telangana.
