So 12hrs gap leeda ? Vijayawada city itself received record rainfall in decades. Do you think everything is all clean on the roads during those 12 hours? Again, there could be some negligence but I am not sure how they could have predicted they have exactly 12 hours or what that 12-hour mark means. These 12 hours are for the city to receive 1 foot of water. or what exactly is this? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Android_Halwa Posted September 9 Report Share Posted September 9 This man appears to have good knowledge about the topography of the area and his analysis appears to be practical. He is not a reddy and channel is not Sakshi , so safe to assume that there may be truth here. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Android_Halwa Posted September 9 Report Share Posted September 9 Bochu la 12 hrs…it drama unfolded much before and disaster started brewing much much before… Khammam received unusual amount of rain and Munneru river was overflowing by Friday itself, Telangana sounded an alert and releif ooerations have started by Friday afternoon. Munneru river joins Krishna near Amaravati and being a down stream city, an alert was sounded and its a standard protocol. Khammam border areas are the catchment areas for budameru rivulet. Ikadivaraku bagane vundi….Fruday afternoon varaku downstream alaerts vellinaka akada cheyalsina pani cheyaledu, even Prakasham barrage gates were lifted after an alert from Pulichintala. Ante ikade ardam avutundi some alerts were taken seriously and some ignored.ignored alerts valle intha jarigindi… Ikadivaraku bagane vundi, saturday roju cabinet meeting jarigindi, you are in a middle of a crisis moment and yet nothing was discussed, not even readyness check… Cabinet meeting denikosam ? JCB ekki bagane tirigindu, mari chese pani sarigga chesthe ilanti pubkicity pani avasaram lekapotunde… 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CanadianMalodu Posted September 10 Report Share Posted September 10 On 9/9/2024 at 9:49 AM, andhra_jp said: If we look at the timeline, unprecedented rains occurred from August 30 to August 31, with the rain stopping by the evening of August 31. However, there was no flooding in the interior areas at that time. The flooding only occurred on the morning of September 1, about 12 hours after the rain had stopped. The reason is simple: the Budameru gates were opened around midnight, in the early hours of September 1. Three possible reasons have been cited for this: 1. The Krishna River was flowing at maximum capacity and couldn’t accommodate the Budameru’s flow. 2. There was pressure from the VTTPS (power plant). 3. To save CBN's house from flooding (Yes Budameru diversion can effect CBN house) Whatever the reason, when the decision was made to open the gates at midnight, there was more than enough time to evacuate people from the affected areas. It’s shocking to think why no evacuation took place. It was obvious that the Budameru would overflow, as it can only accommodate < 10,000 cusecs at best, but that day it was flowing at > 30,000 cusecs. Common sense dictates that it would inevitably overflow. Baboru "Nee 500 kotlu evadiki kavali? Naa asthi laksha kotlu". So that house itself doesn't mean much to him, but flooding of that house will be a disaster to brand Amaravathi. Already about 60-70% CRDA area was flooded. If his house gets flooded that means prime Amaravathi area is prone to floods too. Repu TANA thandana or RE people will try to sell NRIs land in Amravathi. What happens then ? CM kompake dikku ledhu ani, evadu kontadu? Investors dekaru. So Baboru, tamuku vese RK tho kalisi dekhi, bezjawada ni durgamma sakshi ga munchesaru. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
