Khammam Floods : ఉమ్మడి ఖమ్మం జిల్లాలోని పలు ప్రాంతాలకు ఈసారి కూడా వరద ముప్పు తప్పేలా లేదు. కొన్నేళ్లుగా భారీ వర్షాలకు ఖమ్మం నగరం సహా మిగతా పట్టణాల్లో కాలనీలకు కాలనీలే చిగురుటాకులా వణికిపోయాయి. గతేడాది వానాకాలంలో భారీ వరదల ధాటికి ఖమ్మం నగరంతో పాటు పలు పురపాలికలు రోజుల తరబడి వరద నీటిలోనే మగ్గాయి. అయినప్పటికీ బల్దియాల యంత్రాంగాలు నిమ్మకు నీరెత్తినట్లే వ్యవహరిస్తున్నాయి. గత వరదల అనుభవాలు ఇప్పటి నుంచే బాధితులకు కంటిమీద కునుకు లేకుండా చేస్తున్నాయి.

00:40The government has decided to solve the flood problems by constructing dams.
00:46Even though the work is going on fast, there is no chance for this season to come to an end.
00:51In the previously affected areas, emergency measures must be taken.
01:29In Sattupalli, NTR Nagar, Rajiv Kalani has been affected by the floods.

01:55This is the same situation in Illandu.
01:57Due to the dense forest in the middle of Manuguru city, many colonies are being flooded.
02:04Due to the lack of proper drainage system in Godavari, the floods are causing problems here.

02:39They said that the floods will continue for a while.
02:41But it hasn't started yet.
02:43They said that the amount has been released.
02:45But nothing has happened yet.
02:47We don't know what will happen to the trees and floods.
02:49This is a house without pillars.
02:51We don't know if it will survive or not.
02:53We couldn't do anything.
02:55We didn't get a single rupee.
02:57We got the money from the people who bought the house.
02:59If the flood comes, we will get the money.
03:01We got the money from the people who bought the house.
03:03If the flood comes again this year, we will get the money.
03:07It would have been better if we got the money as soon as possible.
03:10Last time itself, we faced a lot of problems.
03:12In the rainy season, in the flood-affected areas,
03:14there is no proper drainage system in the dams.
03:21To drain the flood water,
03:23it is necessary to construct dams.
03:25It is necessary to identify the flood-affected areas in advance.
03:27It is necessary to clean the drainage system in the flood-affected areas.
03:31It is necessary to construct dams to drain the flood water.
03:35In some areas, there are permanent dams.
03:37In some areas, there are temporary flood-affected areas.
03:41But we don't see that situation anywhere.
03:43There are many reasons for this.
03:46The authorities are expressing their pain
03:48that the drainage system in the flood-affected areas
03:50is not properly constructed and is becoming a curse.
03:58When this flood came, it was a big calamity.
04:01Ten to twenty years ago,
04:03the Karakatta, which was covered with mud,
04:05was hit by heavy rains and storms.
04:08All the flood water came and reached the Muslim colony,
04:11Hanuman colony and NUS colony.
04:14The people of Hanuman colony are getting food
04:17from the schools here for two to three days.
04:21But they are not able to arrange for the flood water
04:24to reach Madurai.
04:27It would be better to construct a permanent dam.
