Kurnool: Sangameswaram Siva temple in backwaters of Srisailam Reservoir has started going under water from Tuesday, with water entering the sanctum sanctorum of the shrine for the first time this season.
Incidentally, the temple disappears under water once the reservoir level rises to 850 feet. It remains submerged as long as the level of Srisailam is above 850 feet. It surfaces when the waters recede to 830 feet, disclosed temple priest Telakapalli Raghunath Sarma.
