Why it matters
Extreme weather events in urban centers underscore the need for improved disaster management and resilient infrastructure.
Heavy overnight rain lashed several parts of Telangana, including Hyderabad, between Monday (August 3, 2026) and Tuesday (August 4, 2026) morning, with some locations recording more than 100 mm of rainfall.
In Hyderabad, the overnight downpour led to waterlogging in several parts of the city, particularly in the eastern and southern stretches. As rainwater flooded roads, Hyderabad Disaster Response and Asset Protection Agency and DRF teams were on the ground to clear the waterlogging points including at Rajendranagar, Masab Tank, Quthbullapur, and Attapur.
