Bhadrachalam/Hyderabad, July 19 (Maxim News):  The water level of Godavari at Bhadrachalam is gradually increasing due to rains in the upper reaches. The water level, which was 320 feet on Tuesday evening reached 28.9 feet at one 0’clock on Wednesday afternoon.  Officials estimate that there are indications of further flooding in the next 24 hours as water is released from projects in the upper region.
