Authorities rushed in and took measures to prevent vehicles from going through that route. Vehicles were diverted through the first ghat road as there was a possibility of more boulders falling due to rain.

Tells officials to visit temples in other states for inspiration
The Sri Lakshmi Narasimha Swamy Temple atop Yadagirigutta, which was taken up for redevelopment by the Telangana State government in 2016, may be inaugurated in May, if all the final touches are put to desired satisfaction, Chief Minister K. Chandrasekhar Rao said on Thursday.
He expressed the possibility, as the main temple is already in the finished stage and just requires some last touches.
CM KCR, who is also the chairman of Yadadri Temple Development Authority (YTDA), instructed officials to ensure hassle-free amenities, devotee convenience such as audio-visual experience and queue management, and greenery all around the temple.
