Heavy rain in some parts of Maharashtra and Belagavi and surrounding areas has led to increased inflow into reservoirs on the Krishna and its tributaries.
Belagavi and surrounding areas witnessed 12 mm of rain in nearly four hours. There was a significant amount of rainfall in southern Maharashtra districts too. This has increased the inflow into the dams, officials said.
Inflow into the Lal Bahadur Shastri Reservoir on the Krishna at Almatti in Bagalkot district, the biggest reservoir on the Krishna, increased to 13,000 cusecs by Monday evening.
