The Musi River made hundreds of people homeless in Hyderabad on Friday, September 26, 2025 because the low lie regions made burgundy. Mohammed Khalid, who is flooded by his house in Moosanagar, said, “Rainwater entered our homes at 9 o’clock and we are waiting outside our sleepless house for the withdrawal of water.”
