Chikkamagaluru: The Bhadra River is flowing above the danger mark following the heavy rain that is lashing Chikkamagaluru since Friday.

There is a possibility of sinking in the Hebbale Bridge that is constructed across the Bhadra River near Horanadu. If the bridge gets submerged, the vehicular movement between Kalasa and Horanadu will have to be disrupted.

The water flow in the Bhadra River has increased after the continuous rainfall in and around Kudremukh, Kalasa, and Horanadu on Friday night.

The incessant rain, which has thrown normal life out of danger, has disrupted traffic movement and electricity supply as well.
