Sangareddy: Chief Minister K Chandrashekhar Rao will visit Sangareddy district on February 21 to lay foundation stone for construction of Sangameshwara Lift Irrigation Project (SLIP) and Basaveshwara Lift Irrigation Project (BLIP) near Narayankhed in the district. The two projects will be built with an approximate budget of Rs 4,400 crore. They will provide irrigation water […]
Saying that once Narayankhed, Zaheerabad and Andole areas were known for migration, poverty, and drought, Harish Rao said the irrigation projects will make Sangareddy a farming hub.
The SLIP is proposed to lift water from the Singur reservoir — built across River Manjira in Pulkal mandal of Sangareddy district — to irrigate 2.19 lakh acres in Sangareddy, Andole and Zaheerabad Assembly constituencies.
