Satish Shile, Oct 12, DHNS, Talamari (Raichur district):

Talamari and Kukatanur, flood-hit villages on the banks of the River Tungabhadra, are just five kilometres apart and are in two different states. But in terms of flood relief works carried out by the respective governments (Talamari is in Karnataka, while Kukatanur is in Andhra Pradesh), the two could well be miles apart.
