Areas like Banjara Hills, Quthbullapur, Jeedimetla, Shahpurnagar, Malakpet, Kothapet, Saidabad, Champapet, Santosh Nagar, Madannapet, Uppal, Bahadurpura and Charminar witnessed heavy rainfall.

Meanwhile, some of the districts in Telangana also witnessed the rainfall on Friday. According to the Indian Meteorological Department (IMD), the rains are likely to occur for five more days due to the trough formed over South Tamil Nadu covering Telangana and Rayalaseema.
