About 26 habitations in Velerupadu and Kukunur mandals were still under floodwaters on the 11th day of Godavari floods in Eluru district on Thursday.
The villages were completely cut off from the mainland. The Koya and Kondareddi tribes were taking shelter atop the hills.
Boats were the only mode of transport in the hamlets as water stagnated up to a height of 10 feet.
