The six-member Committee was constituted to study the designs and construction of Medigadda, Annaram and Sundilla barrages of the Kaleshwaram Lift Irrigation Scheme (KLIS)

The BJP government at the Centre was making use of the NDSA like other national agencies such as the Enforcement Directorate, CBI and CAG to target the rival political parties including the BRS , Prakash Rao said.

The committee will hold discussions with the stakeholders of the project for holistic appreciation of the site-related issues and ascertain the hydraulic, structural and geo-technical aspects of the three barrages.

In response to Sriram's claims, the BRS issued a detailed point-by-point rebuttal on Friday.

Farmers were already facing a water crisis and officials had declared that water could not be provided after March 31.

Vedire Sriram, advisor to the Union Jal Shakti Minister and chairman of the Task Force on Interlinking of Rivers, voiced criticism toward the State government for its failure to furnish requested details to the National Dam Safety Authority (NDSA) for a thorough investigation into the Medigadda incident.

The State government had made a request to the NDSA for deputing its team for an end-to-end inspection of the Annaram barrage where fresh seepage was detected last week.
