The incident occurred at Motukula Kunta outlet in Machabollaram under Alwal mandal, where HYDRAA DRF and monsoon response teams were carrying out desilting operations. 

While removing accumulated garbage using a JCB, workers found the body mixed with waste.

that items such as mattresses, pillows, bedsheets, and large quantities of plastic waste are usually found during such operations.

However, the discovery of a human body has caused concern.
