Pulichintala (Andhra Pradesh), Sep 25 (ANI): Twelve gates of the Pulichintala Reservoir were lifted to release over 2 lakh cusecs as storage neared the upper limit of 30 tmcft due to heavy rainfall. The 11 cm rain in Macherla, Gurazala and surrounding areas since Wednesday resulted in spate of rivulets that joined the Krishna River below the Nagarjuna Sagar dam. The water was not from the Nagarjuna Sagar Dam, which is the big reservoir upstream Pulichintala. Haila and Musi are two tributaries that join the Krishna upstream Pulichintala and downstream the dam.
