Water levels fall as reservoirs run dry [1]

Aug. 10: All major irrigation projects, including the Sriramsagar Project (SRSP) in this district, has been receiving poor water inflows.
The water level in all the projects has drastically dropped and this is affecting the crops, particularly paddy. There have been prolonged dry spells across the district and the catchment areas of the river Godavari and its tributary Manjeera.
