BRS Working President KT Rama Rao also suggested the govt to table three to four demands for grants for discussion on a single day from next assembly session
Rama Rao took up the issue earlier this month and wrote a letter to the Chief Secretary stating that after the Congress government was formed in December 2023, vital content on Telangana government websites and social media handles began disappearing.
He raised doubts over the sudden deterioration of the Medigadda Barrage, which withstood the flow of 28 lakh cusecs of water and warned that any future damage to the barrage should be seen as part of this conspiracy by the Congress.
Operations were resumed on Saturday at the Nandi Medaram pump house to which water was released through the gravity canal from the Sripada Yellampalli reservoir.
BRS working president KT Rama Rao pointed out that the Union government had not allocated any funds for expansion of the Hyderabad Metro Rail even in the latest budget.
The project ayacut would be given irrigation from the Sripada Yellampalli Project and the pumping operations will commence in two or three days, says Irrigation Minister N Uttam Kumar Reddy
BRS city president Pagadala Nagaraju along with the party leaders planted saplings in the NSP camp area in 53rd division and a cake was cut in the presence of the elderly at Jeevan Sandhya old age home.
"We hoped that Telugu daughter-in-law, Union Finance Minister Nirmala Sitharaman, would allocate significant funds to Telangana. But what we got is nothing," he stated.
The State government initially estimated the Musi River beautification project cost at Rs 50,000 crore and was later revised to Rs 70,000 crore. Recently, the estimates were freshly revised to a staggering Rs 1.5 lakh crore even before the draft plans are prepared.
The barrage, a crucial component of the Kaleshwaram project, with all its flood gates opened is able to discharge over 3.70 lakh cusecs of water without any signs of distress
Taking to X, Rama Rao said after hoodwinking people for nearly seven months, the government implemented the crop loan waiver scheme which turned out to be a disaster.
