The threat of floods looms large over thousands of people in Krishna and Guntur districts of Andhra Pradesh as 10.5 lakh cusecs water was being released from the Prakasam Barrage in Vijayawada on Monday. The death toll in the heavy rains in several northern districts of Karnataka increased to 194 with 25 unidentified bodies found in several places.Already, several island villages in the Krishna estuary have been inundated, while many more in the Diviseema region, which was devastated by a cyclone in 1977, are rapidly getting submerged. As many as 30 villages upstream of the barrage are marooned since the structure is unable to discharge the massive inflows it is receiving from the Nagarjunasagar.
