| Flights resume at Visakhapatnam airport; toll goes up to nine |
HYDERABAD: The flood-hit areas in Visakhapatnam, East and West Godavari, Khammam, Srikakulam and Vizianagaram were limping back to normality on Sunday following the respite in rain. Flights too resumed at the Visakhapatnam airport.
The toll, however, rose to nine, with two more deaths reported from West Godavari and Vizianagaram districts in wall-collapse and drowning, respectively.
While the ‘trough’ which caused the torrential rain dissipated, another low pressure area lay in the Bay close to West Bengal. The State Met Office, however, said the fresh system was not likely to pose a threat. It might move towards West Bengal and Bangladesh.
