Kurnool: The woes of people in Kurnool
town, about 290 km from Hyderabad, still continue even after
receding of flood water which ravaged the entire city five
days ago.
Though the flood water has receded completely, the roads
and streets are filled up with slush which had entered the
houses during floods.
People are having a tough time cleaning their houses
besides facing shortage of essential commodities.
"The district administration engaged about 2,000
workers for sanitation works in the town today," District
Collector Mukesh Kumar Meena said over phone.
"As the strength of sanitary workers in the town was not
sufficient, we have taken services of workers from nearby
mandals and municipalities," he said.
He said 400 more workers from Greater Hyderabad Municipal
Corporation (GHMC) would arrive here to participate in
sanitation work by tomorrow as repairing of roads breached
between Kurnool and Hyderabad is likely to be completed by
this evening.
