About 44 habitations in Velerupadu and Kukunur mandals have been inundated in the Godavari floods and the villagers shifted to the rehabilitation centres in Eluru district. Many families have shifted to the hilltops nearby.
The situation in the tail-end villages in West Godavari turned grim on Wednesday with the flood water entering many habitations. Communication to almost all the island villages was cut off, the officials said.
