The effort is on effective utilization of Krishna and Godavari waters with an aim to provide irrigation facilities 1.25 Cr acre. With this, Telangana has now become the granary of the country. With focus on using water effectively, the Government has rechristened the irrigation department as Water Resources Department so that the focus is on using water as a resource. Water, irrigation and power issues have been addressed in the shortest possible time, KTR said adding that Telangana had proved that a massive project like Kaleshwaram can happen in just about three years.
