Surplus water from the Kaddam Narayana Reddy project was released downstream after heavy rains in upstream areas led to steady inflows. Officials lifted a crest gate to discharge excess water and urged locals to avoid downstream areas for safety.
The farmers alleged that KNRP assistant engineer Ravi was collecting bribes from farmers to release water to agriculture fields under the Sadharmat project. They demanded officials to take action against him.
Four gates imported from Germany are reportedly dysfunctional, worrying locals and officials. Water is overflowing from the project where these gates were located.
Two crest gates of Kaddam Narayana Reddy Project did not function, posing a threat to the structure and forcing the officials concerned to be on toes, on Friday.
