The heavy rain that has been lashing the city for the last two days, has resulted in increased inflow of water into the city’s two reservoirs. It has also filled up lakes, tanks and ponds in the suburbs, bringing cheers from the agricultural quarter.
But it has also brought in untold hardships to the common man. In the main town area, the 50 years old Variety building collapsed on Monday. Fortunately, there were no causalities as the building was empty at night, when it crumbled down. Several massive trees along the main Market road, have been uprooted in the gale force winds accompanying the rain and the Corporation teams are working day and night to remove these.
The city recorded a total rainfall of 199.00 mm on Monday. The Met office has forecast a let up in rain and winds from Wednesday.
