In Telangana, heavy rains continue to lash northern districts, even as there has been some letdown in the rains since morning in the rest of the state. Nirmal District has recorded over 71 mm of rainfall since morning.

Meanwhile, Chief Minister A. Revanth Reddy visited the rain-hit Khammam and Suryapet districts and reviewed the relief measures with senior officials.
