Incessant rain and floods continued to wreak havoc in parts of Telangana on Wednesday as several villages and some towns were inundated by overflowing water bodies.

The North Telangana region was reeling under the monsoon fury with water flowing over roads, cutting off remote villages while normal life remained paralysed.

Inundation of villages and parts of some towns in the worst affected districts of Adilabad, Nirmal, Komaram Bheem Asifabad, Mancherial and Jagtiyal have forced hundreds of families to move to safer places.

The heavy rainfall and floods have led to incidents of house collapse, disrupted electricity supply and caused widespread damage to crops.

The two major rivers in the state Godavari and Krishna were flowing above the danger mark.

Normal life remained affected in Hyderabad and surrounding districts also.
