At least 27 people have been killed as heavy rain battered Telangana and Andhra Pradesh for the second consecutive day on Sunday, causing flooding and waterlogging in several areas, and disrupting road and rail traffic. In Andhra Pradesh, Vijayawada has been the worst affected district. Budameru, a rivulet on the outskirts of Vijayawada, overflowed at several points on Sunday, leading to flooding in many city localities.
