Spent Rs 1 lakh crore on development of Palamuru: Yennam
Mahabubnagar: Government Whip and MLA Yennam Srinivas Reddy said that the Congress government had spent Rs 1 lakh crore on various development works across the erstwhile Mahabubnagar district in the last two years.
Addressing the media at his camp office in Mahabubnagar, he alleged that the previous BRS government had neglected the development of Palamuru during its ten-year rule and failed to protect the water rights of the region.
Questioning the diversion of Jurala water towards Srisailam without utilising it for the benefit of the local population, he demanded that the Palamuru region be given top priority in the utilisation of Krishna waters.
He reiterated that the demand of the Telangana government was for its rightful share of 558 TMC of Krishna water.
The MLA said the government was committed to providing irrigation facilities to Makthal, Narayanpet and Kodangal constituencies.
The foundation stone had been laid for the Makthal–Narayanpet–Kodangal Lift Irrigation Scheme to bring water to these drought-prone areas.
