The Godavari flood which has been raging for the past two days is slowly receding. Flood in Bhadrachalam remained steady for some hours on Tuesday and then subsided slightly. Officials are on high alert as floodwaters have receded and are still flowing beyond the second warning.
Panic in flood-affected areas has not yet subsided and it is estimated that it will take another 24 hours for danger level to be completely reduced and normal conditions to be restored.
The Godavari is still flowing furiously beyond the second warning level at Dowleswaram SAC barrage in Rajahmundry. As floodwater is coming down from Bhadrachalam, there is a possibility of a flood surge here till Wednesday morning. After that, flood will gradually decrease.
The flow of Godavari River at Bhadrachalam at 7 am on Tuesday was 51.6 feet and at 11 am it reached 51.4 feet. It decreased to 50.8 feet at 3 pm and 50.3 feet at 6 pm.
