Many island villages in West Godavari district and the habitations located along the bunds of the Godavari have been inundated as the floodwater level is on the rise again due to incessant rains in the catchment areas in Telangana, Chhattisgarh and Maharashtra and huge inflows into Pranahita and Indravathi rivers.
Officials issued the second warning level as the floodwater level touched 50.20 feet at Bhadrachalam on Wednesday.
Officials of the Central Water Commission (CWC) too said that the Godavari was rising again.
