Red liquid from manhole sparks panic in Hyderabad
Hyderabad, Nov 26: Residents near the Industrial Estate in Jeedimetla were alarmed when a red-coloured liquid, resembling blood, spilled onto a street late Monday night.
Videos of the liquid emerging from a manhole went viral on social media, sparking widespread concern. Officials on Tuesday clarified that preliminary investigations revealed the substance to be paint wash, not a "hazardous material."
It is unrelated to effluents or chemicals, an official source stated.
Pollution control authorities have collected samples of the liquid, which are now being tested.
The flow from the manhole has since stopped, and the liquid on the road has dried up, officials said.
They suspect the paint wash mixed with water at some source, leading to the incident.

Vijay unable to prove majority, not invited for CM oath ceremony: Sources
Chennai: Actor-politician Vijay has reportedly not been invited to take oath as Chief Minister of Tamil Nadu after failing to demonstrate support from the required number of MLAs, sources in Raj Bhavan said.
According to media reports that quoted sources in the office of R.N. Ravi Arlekar, Vijay could not prove the backing of 118 legislators, the majority mark in the 234-member Tamil Nadu Assembly.
Despite last-minute efforts to secure support from the Viduthalai Chiruthaigal Katchi (VCK), Amma Makkal Munnetra Kazagam (AMMK), and an IUML legislator, Vijay reportedly managed support from only 116 MLAs, falling short by two members.
Sources said Vijay failed to submit letters of support from the VCK and the Indian Union Muslim League (IUML).
Later, the IUML issued a statement clarifying that it was not part of the TVK-led alliance.
Meanwhile, AMMK leader T.T.V. Dhinakaran is also said to have informed the Governor that his party would support the All India Anna Dravida Munnetra Kazhagam (AIADMK) instead.
Earlier in the evening, Vijay had met Governor Arlekar and staked claim to form the government, stating that he enjoyed the support of 118 MLAs.
