After the Nagarjuna Sagar Dam was opened for controlling the flow of water, a massive crowd gathered to observe the beauty of that place. Many policemen reminded the people gathered there that prohibitory order under section 144 of the Code of Criminal Procedure (CrPC) was in place and hence people were not allowed to gather in large numbers. As the police personnel insisted people to leave, many were seen frantically trying to capture a quick selfie at the viewpoint.  

Political stir in Congress continues over President post

Ever since the crest gates of the Nagarjuna Sagar dam were opened, owing to heavy inflow of water, thousands of people have been visiting the project. On Sunday, out of the 26 crest gates, 14 were open. However, keeping the safety of people in mind during the pandemic, the police decided to impose section 144 so that people should not visit the place right now. Unaware of this development, a lot of people continue to visit the dam, hoping to witness the beautiful sight of water flowing down the open shutters of the dam.

Presently, the entire area around the dam premises is barricaded at several parts and police personnel from both Andhra Pradesh and Telangana have been deployed in large numbers to not allow people to venture near the dam or crowd at the viewpoints. Police personnel can be seen patrolling the area, using loudspeakers to announce and remind people that section 144 has been imposed, which prohibits the gathering of five or more people.
