The Andhra Pradesh government has launched an AI-powered 'City Flood Alert' system in Vijayawada to predict urban waterlogging and flash floods. Developed with IIT Gandhinagar, the system provides 48-hour rainfall forecasts and identifies drainage risks.
The Vijayawada Municipal Corporation (VMC) has prepared a draft proposal to increase the number of wards from 64 to 86. This delimitation aims to ensure each ward has an electorate of approximately 8,000 to 10,000 citizens. The draft will be made public for suggestions before finalization, potentially leading to better representation and service delivery in local governance.
