Weather Emergency Response: Telangana braces for severe weather as IMD issues 48-hour heavy rain warning with CM declaring statewide high alert and emergency measures.
HYDERABAD - The India Meteorological Department (IMD) issued a critical 48-hour heavy rain warning for Telangana state, prompting Chief Minister A. Revanth Reddy to declare high alert across all 33 districts. The unprecedented weather emergency has triggered comprehensive disaster preparedness measures including evacuations, relief camp establishments, and coordination with multiple emergency response agencies.
The meteorological forecast predicts thunderstorms accompanied by gusty winds ranging from 40-50 kmph, with heavy to very heavy rainfall expected to continue through the weekend. The weather system, originating from a low-pressure area over the Bay of Bengal, poses significant risks to urban areas, particularly Greater Hyderabad, and rural districts already experiencing intermittent rainfall throughout September.
Chief Minister Revanth Reddy convened an emergency meeting with senior officials, including the Chief Secretary, Director General of Police, and heads of various disaster management agencies. The state government has activated all district collectors and ordered the establishment of relief camps in vulnerable areas, with special attention to low-lying regions prone to waterlogging and flooding.
The aviation sector faces significant disruptions with multiple flights scheduled to land at Rajiv Gandhi International Airport Hyderabad being cancelled or diverted to Vijayawada. Airport authorities are working closely with airlines to minimize passenger inconvenience while prioritizing safety protocols. The Hyderabad Metro Rail has also issued advisories regarding potential service modifications.
Information Technology companies in Hyderabad's HITEC City and other major IT hubs have been advised to implement work-from-home policies for employees due to expected severe traffic congestion and transportation challenges. Major corporations including Microsoft, Google, Amazon, and Indian IT giants have already activated remote work protocols for the next 48 hours.
Educational institutions across the state remain on alert, with authorities prepared to announce closures if weather conditions deteriorate further. The Telangana State Road Transport Corporation (TSRTC) has deployed additional emergency response teams and is monitoring route conditions continuously to ensure passenger safety.
