Godavari rises at Mangampet in Warangal

The water level in the Godavari river at Mangampet ghat in Warangal district has risen.

The water level in the river has increased to some extent following rains for the last two days. Authorities have taken all precautions in view of rush at the ghat to prevent any untoward incident.

Meanwhile, former cricketer VVS Laxman, along with his family members, had a holy dip in the Godavari river at Pochampad ghat in Nizamabad district. In view of the heavy rush at Kaleshswaram, the authorities have stopped issuing VIP passes at the ghat. As the devotees have been waiting for the darshan at the temple after taking a holy dip, the authorities have made arrangements for general darshan to all. (NSS)
