Floods hit North Karnataka; CM to undertake aerial survey 


BENGALURU: Hundreds of villages in North Karnataka (https://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/india/karnataka) were inundated
following release of over 2 lakh cusecs of water from Koyna dam (https://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/topic/Koyna-dam) in
neighbouring Maharashtra (https://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/india/maharashtra) on Sunday and torrential rainfall in the region
prompting the administration to rope in the Army for relief works.
Chief minister B S Yediyurappa reviewed the situation in the region and would undertake an aerial survey of the affected areas
on Monday, officials said.
So far, no loss of life has been reported, official sources said adding the administration was on alert.
At least, five districts-- Belagavi, Bagalkot, Raichur, Vijayapuram and Yadgir have been badly affected by the swollen Krishna
river, Malaprabha, Markandeya (https://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/topic/Markandeya) river and a few other rivulets.
"Belagavi, Bagalkot and Raichur are badly hit. Certain parts of Vijayapura and Yadgir too are affected.
While Army's assistance has been taken in Belagavi, National Disaster Relief Force, State Disaster Relief Force and local police
are toiling hard in all five-flood affected areas," Director of Karnataka State Natural Disaster Monitoring Centre (KSNDMC), G S Srinivasa Reddy told PTI.
Yediyurappa, on Sunday, took stock of the situation through video-conference with officials, Reddy said adding he (Yediyurappa) instructed them to set up relief centres with adequate basic requirements for the flood-hit people.
Five major dams in Maharashtra were filled to the brim, following which excess water was released.
In the last three days, surplus water was being released from Koyna dam built across Koyna river
Officials in the Karnataka Water Resource department said at least 2.4 lakh cusecs of water was released from Koyna dam on
Sunday and there was a likelihood of more quantum being let out from the dam.
The KSNDMC Director also said water level in at least three barrages and Almatti dam across Krishna river reached its full level,
prompting authorities to discharge excess water.
"The inflow of water in Almatti is about 2.24 lakh cusec (https://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/topic/cusec) while 2.5 lakh cusecs
of water is being released," he said.
