‘Discharge water’
A separate release of the CMO said Mr. Rao asked irrigation officials to ensue that the flood to Sriramsagar and other projects on Godavari be released downstream regularly as the river was flowing menacingly in the upper reaches of the State and also in Maharashtra.
In view of forecast of heavy rain in the State for another two or three days, Mr. Rao alerted the Ministers, Collectors and other officials during the 12-hour-long meeting to cancel all their engagements and remain in their respective districts to be accessible to public to attend to any emergencies arising out of the grave situation forecast for another two or three days.
