A devastating cloudburst on Sunday night unleashed chaos across Hyderabad, resulting in multiple fatalities and widespread panic. In Afzalsagar, two individuals, identified as Ramu and Arjun, were feared drowned after being swept away by the powerful current of the Mangarubasti nala. Simultaneously, in Vinobhanagar Colony near Musheerabad, another man, Dinesh, went missing after being caught in a flooded stormwater drain.
In a separate incident linked to the relentless rainfall, a tragic wall collapse occurred at a construction site in Vattinagulapally. One worker lost his life, while four others sustained injuries and were rushed to a nearby hospital for emergency treatment. The incidents have raised serious concerns over the city’s stormwater drainage systems and construction safety during monsoon conditions.
Authorities have launched rescue and search operations in the affected areas, with disaster response teams working around the clock. Heavy rain warnings remain in effect as officials urge residents to avoid low-lying and flood-prone zones.
This rain-triggered tragedy has once again highlighted the urgent need for robust urban planning, improved drainage systems, and stricter construction protocols in Hyderabad, especially during the monsoon season.
