Chief Minister A Revanth Reddy reaffirmed his commitment to complete the Musi river rejuvenation project despite opposition over land acquisition. He also laid foundation stones for Omkareshwara Swamy and Veerabhadra Swamy temples at Manchirevula as part of the riverfront development.
Hyderabad: Chief Minister A Revanth Reddy vowed to complete the River Musi rejuvenation project despite stiff opposition over land acquisition from different sections and shortcomings pointed out in the project planning by the opposition parties.
The Chief Minister laid foundation stones for construction for Omkareshwara Swamy and Veerabhadra Swamy temples on the river banks at Manchirevula here on Saturday.
Addressing the occasion, he said the historical lord Shiva temples were being constructed as part of the Musi project.
“We are developing these temples in eight acres with an investment of Rs. 700 crores. With the divine blessings of lord Shiva, we started these temples’ works,” Revanth Reddy said.
The Chief Minister vowed that the Congress Government would complete the Musi project irrespective of the hurdles created by the opposition parties.
“Lord Shiva will clear all the hurdles for the Musi project. If any people try to create hurdles or conduct a false campaign against the project, the State government will perform Shiva Tandavam against such people,” Revanth Reddy warned.
Taking a dig at a few political leaders for opposing the project, the Chief Minister said some people filed a case with the National Green Tribunal in an attempt to hinder the development.
“If these people continue to create hurdles, people in the region will socially boycott the family,” Revanth Reddy warned and appealed to the leaders to withdraw the case.
Since Telangana was the only landlocked State in the country, Revanth Reddy said that the objective of the Musi project was to revive rivers Musi and Esa, which had turned into dump yards and were taken over by pollution.
