Hyderabad: Heavy showers that pounded sections of the city on Monday, September 22, have taken the water level in the Hussain Sagar lake above the danger mark, posing fears for residents downstream. The level of danger at the lake is 513.41 metres, whereas the present water level is 513.63 metres. The Greater Hyderabad Municipal Corporation (GHMC) issued a warning that floodwaters are continuing to fill Hussain Sagar from Kukatpally, Banjara Hills, and Bulkapur drains, reported ABN. Officials have asserted that the present increase in water level is largely due to sustained rain in several catchment areas in Hyderabad.
