Railway tracks damaged, several trains cancelled

Mahabubabad: The railway tracks in Mahbubabad district, particularly along the Kesamudram, Intikanna, and Tallapusala routes, have been severely damaged due to heavy rains.

This disruption has led to a complete halt in train services in the affected areas. As a result, the South Central Railway has cancelled several trains and rerouted others.

In response to the damage, railway officials have initiated repair work on the affected tracks. A team of approximately 500 railway staff and workers have been deployed to carry out the repairs at a rapid pace.

However, the ongoing floodwaters have posed a significant challenge to the repair efforts. Excavators have been brought in to divert the floodwater to facilitate the work.
