Heavy rains lashed Hyderabad on Tuesday, causing severe waterlogging and disrupting daily life. Many roads across the city were left submerged, creating problems for commuters.
In a heartbreaking incident, a wall under construction collapsed in Bachupally due to the heavy rain. The collapse occurred in Renuka Ellamma Colony, where the construction was underway. Sadly, seven workers were killed when the wall fell on them.
The accident happened late Tuesday night. Rescue teams from the Greater Hyderabad Municipal Corporation (GHMC) and the National Disaster Response Force (NDRF) worked through the night to remove debris and locate survivors. The bodies of the deceased were eventually recovered and transported to Gandhi Hospital for autopsy.

The victims were identified as daily wage laborers from Odisha and Chhattisgarh. Reports indicate they were employed at a new construction project named Harijan Construction in Bachupally.
The tragedy didn’t end there. In another rain-related incident, two bodies were found floating in floodwaters within canals located in Secunderabad’s Begumpet Old Custom Basti area. The Begumpet police were notified by local residents and have launched an investigation to identify the deceased.
The heavy rain came down for about an hour and a half, bringing significant rainfall to the city. Several areas recorded record-breaking precipitation levels. The highest rainfall was measured at 12 centimeters in Kukatpally, with other areas receiving significant amounts as well.
