There has been much anxiety over the floods situation right now in Kurnool, Mahaboobnagar, Vijayawada areas of Andhra Pradesh State.

Floods in Andhra pradesh is the hot topic every where. Already nearly 30,000 people had been trapped in the flood water. This is the first ever time in the history of Andhra that has seen such type of floods. All the reasons for this floods situation lies on several factors. The first one is the nature itself for raining drastically within 2 days a record of upto 30 centimeters and more is recorded in many of theses areas.

And additional to that, the back waters from other sources are affecting more. And also flood water from the dams present in Karnataka is also one of the problems. The authorities in AP are not able to estimate the inflow of flood water into Srisailam and Nagarjuna Dam.

Red Alert has been announced right now in Kurnool as there is a heavy inflow of the flood water from upper regions. So tonight we can see the water level increase of upto 4 or 5 feet raise in the colonies.

In spite of additional cares that the authorities are taking, people are reporting that proper help and rescues are not reached to them. Many volunteers have arrived to these regions and started to distribute food, clothes and water packets.

Mantralayam which is famous for Sri Raghavendra Swamy is completely drowned and the bustation and other site seeing spots including the AP Tourism's Punnami Hotel is also one of the drowned places. Children in these places are crying for help and proper care.
