The Eluru District administration, led by District SP K Pratap Siva Kishore, has issued a crucial safety advisory in light of the current heavy rainfall affecting the region. Residents are strongly advised to avoid standing under trees, particularly during thunderstorms, and to refrain from using mobile phones, which can attract lightning. Electric poles pose additional risks, prompting officials to urge caution and vigilance, especially for children near exposed wires.
Authorities also cautioned against hastily crossing rivers, canals, and other water bodies, especially when water flow appears swift. As a precaution, low‑lying area inhabitants are asked to relocate temporarily to safer zones until the heavy rain subsides. Community awareness and prompt reporting of fallen trees or debris obstructing roads are vital for maintaining public safety and ensuring accessible road networks.
This proactive measure by Eluru’s law enforcement and district leadership aims to mitigate incidents related to flood hazards, electrical hazards, and storm-related accidents. Residents are encouraged to remain alert, follow local advisories, and prioritize safety during this period of intense monsoon activity.
