Overall reservoir levels in Andhra Pradesh are holding at 50% amid heavy rain, The Hindu reported. Water flows have been substantial in the Godavari and Krishna systems, according to the report. Those inflows have not produced uniform storage conditions across the state.
Reservoirs in the Pennar basin and Rayalaseema remain far below capacity. The contrast reflects an uneven distribution of water between the state’s river systems and regions. The supplied material does not give the total volume of water stored, individual reservoir figures or a comparison with the levels recorded at the same time last year.
It does, however, indicate that heavy rainfall has coincided with stable overall storage rather than a uniformly strong position across Andhra Pradesh.
