BRS president and former Telangana Chief Minister K Chandrashekhar Rao (KCR) will appear before the Justice P.C. Ghose Commission on June 11, in connection with the ongoing probe into the Kaleshwaram Lift Irrigation Project

The malicious political narrative must move beyond narrow cost-benefit metrics to recognise KLIP’s role in correcting historical injustices, empowering the marginalised, and breaking cycles of poverty

Projects Telangana as global case study in sustainable growth, innovation and inclusive governance

The slow-paced approach to the rehabilitation of the project has ignited fresh concerns among farmers

Concerns are mounting over potential plans to weaken the project’s functionality with political decisions at the centre

This crisis is casting a shadow of uncertainty over crops that are just one to one-and-a-half months away from harvest

The investigations are set to continue until the end of October. To finalize their studies, CWPRI requires the Medigadda barrage to be free of water storage for at least a couple of weeks

The storage capacity of the project was 50 TMC. The irrigation department is pumping 6,500 cusecs of water as on Wednesday

BRS leader and former MP B Vinod Kumar said that the Chief Minister A Revanth Reddy came to power by promising to waive all farm loans on December 9. However, CM waived loans of only 45 percent farmers after eight months.

The officials were more or less certain of the scope for lifting water from Medigadda barrage even with all its gates fully open with over eight to ten lakh cusecs being let off.

A final decision will be taken at a meeting of the state official and representatives of the NDSA to be held in New Delhi on Monday.

Irrigation officials firm on resuming the pumping operations under the project and keeping all the pump houses ready.

The Congress government here appears to have an eye on the sand dunes at the Medigadda barrage to make some money.

Medigada barrage, an integral component of the Kaleshwaram Lift Irrigation Project, in its present condition may not allow lifting of water at the designed capacity of two tmc a day.

In an official statement, the L&T spokesperson said at one of the locations of Block-7 of the Medigadda barrage, a bridge portion was observed to be sagging after a loud noise on Saturday evening.

Speaking after inaugurating Rythu Vedhika at Palitham village in Peddapalli mandal, Eashwar said Telangana was the only State in the country constructing Rythu Vedhikas.
