All related projects captured by water. In our government estimation above 18 lakhs of people are effected but as per local knowledge 25 lakhs of people have been effected by flooding in 5 districts of A.P. 60 dead bodies identified by government but death flow rises to high number in kurnool. 2-3 lakhs of people are shifted to relief camps .500 and above people are died in entire Rayalseema. It is not a correct figure but number may be high that is publicized  by government inflow is decreased the water but out flowed rain get together and pass on the out flow in related northern Andhra and telangana irrigation projects reached the water. That’s why Krishna, Nagarjuna , Almat Dam , Jorala projects are in very serious condition .
