‘TDP echoing Telangana leaders’ version on Krishna water issue’
Minister for Irrigation and Water Resources Anil Kumar Yadav came down heavily on TDP president N. Chandrababu Naidu stating that he was trying to create a rift among the regions for his political gains. Speaking to the media at the party central office here on Monday, the Minister said the TDP leaders of Prakasam district had written a letter to drop the proposal to increase the capacity of the Rayalaseema Lift Irrigation Scheme (RLIS) at Srisailam from 44,000 cusecs to 80,000 cusecs only to create a divide among the people of different regions. The Minister said the State government under the leadership of Chief Minister Y.S. Jagan Mohan Reddy had completed the works of Veligonda Tunnel-1 on a war-footing and the works of Tunnel -2 would be completed by 2023 and water would be released to Prakasam district. “What has Mr. Naidu done for the development of the region during his tenure?” he asked.More Related News
Everyone talks about the Airport Metro, but one look at the pillars and completion seems nowhere in sight. Meanwhile, a faster, cheaper, roomier alternative called the Suburban Rail Airport Corridor is finally getting off the drawing board. This dedicated corridor with its specialised coaches will link the airport to vast stretches of Bengaluru, where the metro connection is still years away.
