"medigadda-barrage"

The open inquiry session focused on the structural integrity and safety protocols of the Medigadda, Annaram, and Sundilla barrages. Justice Ghose inquired whether model studies were conducted as required before the construction of the barrages.

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

Critics argue that the NDSA report was designed to benefit the ruling party at the Centre, with allegations on planning, design, construction quality, and management errors.

Problems similar to that of Medigadda were encountered after construction of several major dams and barrages and they continued to be a significant concern, particularly in regions prone to seismic activity and highwater inflows

The Vigilance and Enforcement Wing’s investigation into the construction of Medigadda barrage and other key components of the Kaleshwaram Lift Irrigation scheme is in the final stage. Government sources said its report is getting the finishing touches.

The complainant alleged that the group used a drone camera to capture visuals of the barrage without obtaining prior permission or providing any intimation.

BRS working president KT Rama Rao stated that the Sunkishala incident did not involve any engineering or design failure, as alleged by the Congress regarding the Medigadda barrage. He clarified that the collapse of the retaining wall between two expansion joints was due to the improper fitting of gates, which lacked the necessary oversight from the responsible Minister.

The motors were last operated in July last year and about 9 TMC of water was pumped from the pump house.

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

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.

The Godavari has started sending a whopping 80 TMC of water a day downstream from the Medigadda barrage, but several of the projects upstream have still been drawing a blank in terms of inflows received.

Ahead of the National Dam Safety Authority (NDSA) review of the interim works on the Medigadda Barrage. Chief Minister A Revanth Reddy made several suggestions to officers and engineers on Sunday.

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

He stated that the Medigadda barrage, which was written off by the Congress government, had disproved all the allegations against it by standing resolute and rocksolid surviving the flood once again

Three of the major projects- Medigadda, Sammakka Sagar and Seetarama Sagar on Godavari have been receiving heavy inflows and they are likely to rise further as heavy rains were forecast in north Telangana districts for the next two days.

These bids were for the auction of 14 blocks. These sand blocks are located within Mahadevpur mandal of Jayashankar Bhupalpally district.

Clarification comes in the backdrop of rumours that piers had once again sunk in the barrage

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

Speaking to mediapersons at Telangana Bhavan here on Wednesday, Suman said the tender violated the guidelines of National Green Tribunal and warned that if the government doesn't reconsider, the BRS will take legal course.

Patha Venkataramana, who led the team, told pressmen that building the barrage across Pranahita river was the only option left following sinking of the piers of the Medigadda barrage, a part of KLIP.
