Two people died in mishaps as heavy rains lashed Hyderabad on Friday evening.
Trees and electricity poles fell in many places, leading to power shutdowns.
Ahmed-Bin-Ibrahim (32) died after asbestos sheets and a water tank fell on him during a rainstorm in Bhavani Nagar area, police said.
His brother was also injured in the incident and taken to hospital for treatment.
Yellaiah, a labourer, died in a wall collapse in Rajendra Nagar.
The showers started at around 4.45 pm, inundated roads and caused water-logging in low-lying areas. Traffic came to a standstill in many parts of the city.
