Warangal Plans Sponge Parks To Combat Flooding

Imagine your city is like a kitchen counter that gets too much water when it rains, causing spills (floods).

Warangal wants to build special parks that are like sponges.

These parks will have lots of plants and special ground to soak up rainwater, just like a sponge soaks up spills.

This will help stop the city from flooding during the rainy season.

It also helps put water back into the ground for wells to use later.

This idea is like what another city, Chennai, did after it had big floods.

They turned empty lots into these water-soaking parks.

Warangal hopes these new 'sponge parks' will make the city greener and help it handle heavy rains better.

They are looking for the best spots to build the first ones.
