Underlining the need for construction of a project on Vedavathi river to provide better irrigation facility to the farm land in the constituency, he said Rs 4 crore was sanctioned for its survey when his brother and AP Water Resources Development Apex Committee member Kumar Goud took the matter to the notice of the Chief Minister. Steps were taken to augment drinking water supply in the town. The TDP set up 20 water kiosks in Alur to quench the thirst of people during the hot summer. Water is also being supplied to the problem-ridden areas through tankers.
