Naidu tells Collectors to stay alert, restore roads and move people from landslip-prone areas as rain continues
Andhra Pradesh Chief Minister N. Chandrababu Naidu has directed district officials to remain on high alert as heavy rains and a deep depression impact the state. The administration is focusing on road restoration, power supply maintenance, and relocating residents from vulnerable areas.
Why it matters
Proactive disaster management is crucial for minimizing casualties and infrastructure damage during extreme weather events in coastal regions.
Andhra Pradesh Chief Minister N. Chandrababu Naidu, at a late-night review on Wednesday, directed the district administrations in rain-affected areas to remain fully alert on Thursday (September 24, 2026) and Friday, when heavy rain was expected to continue.
Collectors of Srikakulam, Vizianagaram, Visakhapatnam, Parvathipuram Manyam, Alluri Sitharama Raju, Anakapalli, West Godavari, Dr. B.R. Ambedkar Konaseema, Eluru, Polavaram and Krishna districts took part in the teleconference. Rain could grow heavier after the deep depression crossed the coast, the Chief Minister told them, according to a post by the Chief Minister’s Office on X.
