The heavy downpour has disrupted normal lives of people as there is water logging in various parts of the Telangana. The India Meteorological Department (IMD) said a depression over the western parts of the state will move west north westwards and gradually weaken into a well-marked, low-pressure area in the next 12 hours, the report adds.

Depression over western parts of Telangana near latitude 17.7°N and longitude 78.1°E, about 50 km west of Hyderabad is a potential cause of the sudden downpour in the city and surrounding areas.
