Heavy rains that lashed the city over the past few days have damaged roads under the Greater Hyderabad Municipal Corporation (GHMC) limits, officials said.


According to initial estimates, the civic body requires over Rs 100 crore to restore the roads. "Every day, around 1,500 potholes were filled up," he said, adding that efforts were on to demolish the illegal structures raised on the nullahs (drainages).

Four columns of the Army were yesterday deployed inrain-affected areas of Hyderabad and neighbouring Ranga Reddy district after heavy downpour wreaked havoc in the capital and other parts of Telangana cutting off low-lying areas.

Army troops have been moved into Begumpet, Nizampet and Hakimpet areas in the city and Alwal in Ranga Reddy district to provide necessary relief.

Meanwhile, the civic body chief directed the Health and Sanitation wing to take up a sanitation drive in rain-effected areas for control of diseases in the city.
