Hyderabad: A red alert has been issued for the Musi catchment area as heavy rains continue to batter the city. The twin reservoirs—Himayat Sagar and Osman Sagar—are overflowing, prompting authorities to lift 17 gates for the first time this season. The release has intensified the flow of the Musi River through the city, creating hazardous conditions for residents.

Officials report that a combined 13,000 cusecs of water are being discharged from the reservoirs into the river. Himayat Sagar is releasing 6,000 cusecs through six gates, while Osman Sagar is releasing 8,000 cusecs by lifting 11 gates.
