Severe flooding in Vijayawada, Andhra Pradesh, has prompted Chief Minister N. Chandrababu Naidu to oversee rescue and relief operations amid heavy rainfall, which has been described as the worst in 200 years. The government is deploying 110 boats for food and medical assistance while establishing command and control centers in affected areas. The South Central Railway has cancelled and diverted numerous trains due to waterlogged tracks, further complicating the situation. Prime Minister Modi has assured support from the Central government, as Naidu seeks additional resources including National Disaster Response Force (NDRF) teams for rescue efforts. Rising water levels in local rivers have led to evacuations and heightened alertness in surrounding regions. Authorities are also working on preventing water contamination and managing public health risks associated with the flooding.
