The Telangana government has proposed reducing the height of the Tummidihatti barrage to 150 metres to balance water utilisation and minimise submergence in Maharashtra. Chief Minister A. Revanth Reddy directed officials to prepare proposals, and initiate talks with the Maharashtra government.
With regard to repair works at Medigadda, he said the works would be taken up on the basis of recommendations made by the National Dam Safety Authority (NDSA).
