Four official teams formed to monitor ghat roads, says ITDA Project Officer
Normal life has been disrupted due to heavy rain for the last three days under the influence of Cyclone Gulab in the Visakhapatnam district. Several culverts and kucha roads in the rural and in the Agency areas have been washed away by the overflowing of canals and rivulets and cutting off villages in the interior parts to the mandal headquarters since Monday. In some parts, water is seen overflowing onto the roads.
Keeping in view of the incessant downpour and flooding in many areas, the district administration announced holiday for the schools on Tuesday.

The Karnataka government has drafted a comprehensive master plan for the integrated development of Kukke Subrahmanya temple, the State’s highest revenue-generating temple managed by the Hindu Religious Institutions and Charitable Endowments Department. The redevelopment initiative is estimated to cost around ₹254 crore and aims to enhance infrastructure and facilities for devotees.
