Watch: Rains bring out nature’s beauty at Edupayala temple in Medak

Heavy rains and the opening of five crest gates at Singur have led to the Manjeera river flooding Edupayala temple in Medak. Darshan has been suspended, but rituals continue. Drone visuals of the river in spate have gone viral online

Medak: The river Manjeera is in full flow at Sri Vanadurga Bhavani Temple in Edupayala, with water gushing through the sanctum sanctorum as inflows crossed 40,000 cusecs following the lifting of five crest gates at Singur.

While darshan for devotees has been suspended, priests have continued performing daily rituals to the processional deities after installing them at the Rajagopuram. Despite the closure, people have been visiting Edupayala to witness the river in full spate.
