Villager swept away as Godavari floods affect 8,500 in Eluru district

Heavy flooding caused by the Godavari River has impacted nearly 8,500 people across 28 villages in Eluru district, primarily affecting tribal communities. The river reached 56.10 feet at Bhadrachalam, triggering a third flood warning. A 32-year-old man named N. Prasad was swept away while crossing an overflowing section of the river on a low-level causeway. Rescue efforts involving the National Disaster Response Force (NDRF), State Disaster Response Force (SDRF), and local authorities are ongoing. Officials have evacuated residents to relief camps and deployed supplies and expert swimmers to assist stranded villagers. Authorities have also emphasized maintaining hygiene and medical services in the affected areas.
