Telangana issues cyclone safety advisory as Murasu approaches

Authorities in Nagarkurnool district have issued a series of precautionary measures as Cyclone Murasu threatens the region. The administration has specifically advised residents and visitors to refrain from travelling to vulnerable areas, with particular focus on the Somasila region, Nallamalla ghat road, and popular tourist hotspots.

The safety advisory forms part of broader disaster preparedness efforts across Telangana as the cyclone approaches. Officials have emphasised that travel restrictions are necessary due to anticipated adverse weather conditions, including heavy rainfall, strong winds, and potentially hazardous road conditions that could emerge in hilly and ghats areas.

The Nallamalla ghat road, a key transportation route connecting various parts of the district, has been flagged as particularly dangerous during the cyclone period. Somasila, a notable landmark in the region, has also been designated as out of bounds for the public during the weather emergency.

Residents have been urged to follow official guidance and remain updated through local administration channels. The advisory is part of standard cyclone preparedness protocols implemented in vulnerable districts of Telangana to ensure public safety during severe weather events.
