Heavy rain over parts of southern and western India since 13 October has caused flooding in the states of Telangana, Andhra Pradesh, Karnataka and Maharashtra. Telangana’s capital, Hyderabad, is among the worst affected areas and experienced record rain fall. According to media reports, 61 people have died since the beginning of the floods and at least 80,000 people were evacuated to relief camps. According to the Disaster Management Division (DMD), over 3,400 houses have been damaged or destroyed. (OCHA, 20 Oct 2020)
On 18 October, heavy rains left several parts of Hyderabad flooded, only days after the city had experienced record rainfall. Reports indicate at least 70 people have died in the floods and affected families are without basic facilities including health services and access to safe drinking water, according to humanitarian partners and media reports. The Government of Telangana has released INR550 crores ($74 million) for immediate flood relief and is supplying food packages and chlorine tablets to affected people. Local authorities and police forces have evacuated over 3,000 people from inundated areas in Hyderabad and surrounding suburbs. At least 90 evacuees have reportedly tested positive for COVID-19, raising the need for Infection Prevention, and Control (IPC) measures in evacuation sites. (OCHA, 27 Oct
