Hyderabad, parts of Telangana get heavy rain

Hyderabad and other places in Telangana received heavy rainfall accompanied by squall late last night and early today, throwing normal life out of gear in the state capital.
Chevella, neighbouring Hyderabad, and Khammam received as high as seven cms of rainfall each, while parts of Hyderabad city got six cms of rain, the India Meteorological Department (IMD) said in its daily weather report of Telangana state.
Electricity supply was affected in several localities of the city as the squall resulted in the trees getting uprooted and caused disturbance to the power supply network.
The personnel from Greater Hyderabad Municipal Corporation (GHMC) were engaged in clearing the debris. The electricity supply was also being restored, official sources said.

Despite the rains, there was no major change in maximum temperatures recorded in Telangana during the last 24 hours, as per the IMD's weather report.
