The prospects of major reservoirs in the Krishna and Godavari Basins in the State have improved with the south-west monsoon getting active over the catchment areas in the upper and middle basins of the two rivers in Karnataka and Maharashtra and lower basins in Telangana with the support of low pressure area and the associated cyclonic circulation over the Bay of Bengal. Inflows, which have been mostly moderate, into most of the reservoirs have been fluctuating during the six-week monsoon season so far. However, they are likely to be stabilised and improved over the coming weeks with the monsoon getting active and the catchment areas getting rains. According to the Central Water Commission (CWC) officials, over 12.6 cm rain was recorded in Agumbe, the major catchment of Tungabhadra river, and over 6.5 cm in Krishna Agraharam in Jogulamba-Gadwal district during the 24-hour period till 8.30 a.m. on Sunday.
