Accordingly, two collection chambers were dug at the intersection of Rama Rao Road and Justice Sundaram Road and one more on Justice Sundaram Road and the last one near the stormwater drain network on 2nd street, Abhiramapuram East,” Ashok added. Since Rama Rao Road is a cul-de-sac, there is no way for the rainwater to flow out. This project was made possible by the collective efforts of the AE, MLA R.

Nataraj and all the residents of Rama Rao Road,” he said..
