But after the formation of separate Telangana, the State government laid more focus on the irrigation sector and constructed Kaleshwaram Lift Irrigation Scheme and other projects.

This helped in meeting the requirements of the drinking water and irrigation sector. The ground water levels were also improved significantly with the help of Mission Kakatiya programme.
