Sangareddy: Several residents of Thogarpally in Kondapur mandal were stranded on the other side of an overflowing lake for the last two days, unable to cross over due to heavy inflows.

With the lake continuing to swell, villagers were cut off until Saturday, facing severe hardships. Power supply was disrupted and they could not access groceries, as the kacha road downstream was impassable.
