Visakhapatnam: Visakhapatnam has witnessed a significant rise in water levels across its reservoirs and groundwater sources, thanks to an exceptionally rainy July. Local authorities said the heavy rains have improved water levels in several reservoirs managed by the Visakhapatnam Industrial Water Supply Company and raised groundwater levels by 2 meters compared to last month. Greater Visakhapatnam Municipal Corporation superintending engineer K.V.N Ravi confirmed the positive impact of the recent rains, stating, "Yes, almost all the water resources of our GVMC, including reservoirs and rivers, are above the minimum level due to abundant rains in the past one week." The Yeleru Reservoir, a critical water source for the city, saw its levels rise from 70.05 meters on July 5 to 79.50 meters by the end of the month.
