Sangameswara temple on the verge of drowning
The temple priest Telakapalli Raghuramasarma performed Rudra Homam on the roof and gave arti to the constituent rivers of the confluence. Performing puja to presiding deity Lord Sangameswar for the pushkaralu commencing Friday next is ruled out because of sheet of flood water enveloping the temple.
Atmakur (Kurnool): The sangameswara temple, which is located at the confluence of several rivers, including river Krishna, is facing the threat of inundation because of floods caused discharge of water by neighbouring Maharashtra. The temple is under flood water up to roof level.
The temple priest Telakapalli Raghuramasarma performed Rudra Homam on the roof and gave arti to the constituent rivers of the confluence. Performing puja to presiding deity Lord Sangameswar for the pushkaralu commencing Friday next is ruled out because of sheet of flood water enveloping the temple.
There were practically no inflows into Srisailam dam for the past two years on account of drought. The temple is on the verge of submergence after a gap of 571 days.
There is 50 per cent chance of even the bathing ghats located at a higher altitude getting submerged. Devotees are thronging the place to catch a glimpse of the temple on the way to inundation.
