Kundapur, Aug 6: There is fear of floods in the state due to incessant rains. Reservoirs in Malnad region are filled up due to torrential rainfall. It has been raining heavily in the vicinity of Yethanakatte reservoir. While the maximum level of the reservoir is 563.88 meter, water reached 563.21 meter on Monday afternoon. If the flow of water to the reservoir continues, the level may reach danger mark and excess water may have to be let out for safety purposes, said executive engineer of Karnataka Electricity Corporation.

The fear of floods in the banks of the reservoir and Varahi and Haladi riverside looms large if the excess water is let out. Residents near the banks and those who are likely to be affected have been asked to shift to safe places with their animals and valuables.

    ನಮ್ಮ ಬಡಾಕೆರೆ ಇದು ಒಂದು ದ್ವೀಪ ಪ್ರದೇಶವಾಗಿದ್ದು, ಇಲ್ಲಿ ಚಿಕ್ಕ ನೆರೆ ಬಂದರು ಕೂಡಾ ಬಾಗಾಶ: ಮುಳುಗಿ ಹೋಗಿರುತ್ತದೆ.
    ದಿನಾಂಕ 6 ಮತ್ತು 7 ಕ್ಕೇ ಬಂದ ನೆರೆಯಿಂದ ಭಾರಿ ಪ್ರಮಾಣದ ಹಾನಿಯಾಗಿರುತ್ತದೆ. ನಮ್ಮ ಮನೆಯ ಅಂಗಳದಲ್ಲಿ ನೀರು ಹಾದು ಹೋಗಿದೆ ಮತ್ತು 2 ದಿನದಿಂದ ನೀರು ತುಂಬಿಕೊಂಡೆ ಇದ್ದಿದೆ. ಹೀಗಾಗಿ ನಾವು ತುಂಬಾ ನೋವು/ನಷ್ಟ ಅನುಭವಿ ಸಿರುತ್ತೇವೆ .
    2 ದಿನದಿಂದ ಗಾಳಿ/ ಮಳೆ ಇದ್ದಿರುಹುದರಿಂದ ಅಪಾರ ಪ್ರಮಾಣದ ಕಷ್ಟ/ ನಷ್ಟ ಅನುಭವಿಸಿರುತ್ತೇವೆ.
