00:00The residents of Vijayawada have been bathing in water for the past three days as a result of the lack of water supply in the past.
00:08The home minister's colony in Vijayawada, under the control of Ramavarappadu, was flooded.
00:13Anitha's house was surrounded by flood water.
00:16The home minister got her children on a tractor and took them to a safe area.
00:20The rescue team that reached the minister's house,
00:22Anitha was instructed to carry out first aid operations in the front areas rather than her house.
00:27In the colony, other families were arranged to go to the safe areas.
00:31With the flow of the Krishnanadhi, the underground areas of Prakasam Barrage were flooded.
00:35The entire underground area was flooded from the place where the Yeramalakudruvada protective wall was completed.
00:40In the colonies of Ramalengeshwari Nagar, Putta Road, Sivaparvati Nagar and Sai Nagar,
00:45four feet of flood water flooded the houses.
00:48From Peddapulipaka to Srinagar colony, five kilometers of flood water flooded the colonies.
00:53Anitha didn't do anything, brother.
00:55All the valuables were washed away.
00:57All the beer bottles were washed away.
00:59All the TVs were washed away, brother.
01:01All the TVs were washed away.
01:03Almost nine feet of water came to the house, brother.
01:06All the valuables were washed away.
01:08It was a big problem, brother.
01:10No one told us anything.
01:12We were with the children who came suddenly.
01:15We were in a lot of trouble.
01:17It was a big problem.
01:19No one told us anything.
01:21We were angry from morning till night.
01:24We didn't know where to keep the children.
01:27We took them and left them on the roads.
01:30Besant Street, Purnamigat, Bank Center, Darga.
01:36All these were on the roof of the house.
01:39We removed everything from the house.
01:42We put a powder net on it, but it didn't work.
01:45The main reason for all this is the roof.
01:48Even if there was a lot of water, it was more than that.
01:51But it didn't come like this, never.
01:53This is the first time.
01:55We haven't had water in our service for 45 years.
01:58This powder net is coming.
02:00If we remove everything from the house and put a return valve,
02:04it will be safe for a long time.
02:06This effect is due to heavy rains.
02:10If the river level rises, there may be no water at all.
02:15The government helped us a lot.
02:18They gave us milk packets and everything.
02:21If we had been informed earlier,
02:23we would have been able to go to other areas.

02:50because the flood is increasing.
