Bengaluru, Aug 9: Swollen rivers and flood-like situation continue to threaten lives and property in several parts of Karnataka that have been ravaged by torrential rains over the last few days.
Though there has been a respite from the downpour in some parts, rivers continue to flow above the danger mark, inundating low lying areas in several parts of Malnad, coastal and interior Karnataka.
There are also reports of continued landslides in hilly areas of Kodagu and Chikkamagaluru.
In Dakshina Kannada, heavy rains have submerged several areas in Bantwala and Belthangady, among others, with the Netravati river overflowing and also water being released from nearby dams.
Officials said incessant rains in Cauvery river catchment areas have led to increased inflow in the Krishna Raja Sagara dam in Mandya district. Water is being released from it and people living in low lying areas have been warned, they said.
There is also a flood-like situation in Najanagudu and nearby areas of Mysuru as the swollen Kapila river has inundated roads connecting Ooty in neighbouring Tamil Nadu, with water being released from Kabini dam.
There has been some respite from heavy rains in certain parts of Kodagu, which has been ravaged by floods and landslides. However, several areas of the district continue to be in deluge with the Cauvery and Lakshmana Tirtha rivers overflowing due to rains in the hilly areas.
There are also reports of landslides in some parts of the district.
Meanwhile, continuing rains are hampering the search operation by NDRF and authorities to locate five people, including the priest at Talacauvery, the origin of the river Cauvery, who had gone missing due to massive landslides at Bramhagiri hills on Wednesday night.
There are also reports of landslides at a few places in Charmadi ghat region of Chikkamagaluru and the road connecting to Dakshina Kannada has been closed temporarily.
Though Belagavi district has had some respite from the heavy rains, flood like situation continues to persist as the Krishna river and its tributaries are swollen due to continued inflows because of rains in neighbouring Maharashtra.
Inflow has also increased to the Tungabhadra dam of Ballari district due to rains in the catchment areas of Shivamogga and Chikkamagaluru.
Authorities have alerted people living in low lying areas about opening dam gates to release water anytime with rising inflow.
There is a similar flood like situation in parts of Yadgir, Raichur and Bagalkote districts with water being released from various dams.
The state government has released ₹ 50 crore for emergency relief and has announced ₹ 10,000 as immediate relief each to affected families.
An amount of ₹ 5 lakh has been announced for completely damaged houses, while in the case of partially damaged ones, relief will be distributed considering the extent of damage.

Now every Peace loving Hindu should stand united against her and denounce her terrorizing speech. Say boldly she does not represent any peace loving Hindus.
Hinduism does not reflect in her. If people like her continues to live, they then spoil the Hinduism or the religion what they represent.
If the government is fair, they should take immediate action by arresting her and prosecuting under law of the land.
Now there is no any surprise for any peace loving person declares a bounty of 1crore for head brainless head, if the government does not take any action against her.
Oh peace loving Hindus and Muslims be united, live together follow whatever your religion says, but please use your valued brain for understanding the true teaching of God.
Look at her .........like shit....she represents. A religion...?
Again the drain is open.......may be because of rain...
Need some good man to please her....so she is satisfied with something.....
Dear Majoosi sect please identity yourself & Hussaini Tiger organization address before placing 15 lakh on Dr Naik. secondly implement your Ayatullah fatwa & award on Rushdi.
Sadhvi is on drug. She has no capacity to give birth to baby how can she behead someone like Dr. Naik. Too funny.
We need organization to file criminal case against these organizations & individuals scums in the court.
A Killer / Murderer in Sadhvi's clothing?
What are the criminal charges for supari killing?
Can police arrest her and put behind the bars.
VHP and its allies are feeding and nurturing few lunatic creatures in its terror camps and utilize them in such cirumstances which becomes mockery every time they tries. Arnav Goswami must be a frustrated joker at this moment.

Now what shall we call this? Peace lovers? Is this not terrorism. Wher is arnab and party now, dont they have guts to question or interrogate her why she is promoting terror and hatred in peoples mind and encourage killing??!!!!
See her ugly face ..did she ever seen 10k rupee in her life ..first spend some amount in beauty parlour.
Zakir Naik s head is more costlier than kohinoor diamond. just by wearing orange dress an uncultured woman will not become sadhvi.
There are many scholars got defeated by zakir bhai in debate. They have tried all their scholars after getting defeat they are using terrorism weopons against him.
It shows their impotency .
