The Greater Hyderabad Municipal Corporation (GHMC) has issued a warning to all residents because of the ongoing heavy rains in the city. The GHMC is asking everyone to stay indoors and only go out if it is absolutely necessary. This is to ensure everyone’s safety as the rains have caused flooding in some areas.

Important Safety Tips for Everyone

1. Stay Indoors: If you do not need to go out, please stay at home. The roads are slippery, and there is a risk of accidents due to waterlogged streets.
2. Avoid Water Areas: Do not go near drains, ponds, or any water bodies. These places can be very dangerous during heavy rains because of the risk of sudden flooding.
3. Protect Children and the Elderly: Make sure children and older people stay inside. They are more at risk of falling or getting hurt in the water.
4. Emergency Contact Numbers: If there is an emergency, you can call the GHMC helpline at 040-21111111 or 9000113667. These numbers are available to help in any urgent situation.
5. Monsoon Teams Ready to Help: GHMC has teams ready to deal with any waterlogging or flooding problems. They are working day and night to keep everyone safe and solve any issues caused by the rain.
