Kothagudem: Many mandals in the district witnessed moderate to very heavy rainfall that disrupted normal life and affected coal production in SCCL opencast mines.

With continuous downpour many streams were overflowing in the above mandals. Coal production in SCCL opencast mines in Kothagudem, Manugur, Yellandu and Tekulapalli mandals in Kothagudem district and at Sathupalli in Khammam district was affected.
Meanwhile, devotees faced difficulty in taking out Ganesh immersion processions with rains lashing out the district continuously since afternoon hours. However, braving the rain the processions accompanied by drum beats and chanting of slogans were taken out. People of all age groups joined the processions.
