Harish Rao blasts Congress govt over Sitarama Project

 

Harish Rao dismissed Irrigation Minister N Uttam Kumar Reddy’s claims that the permission for the Sitarama Lift Irrigation Project was pending

Hyderabad: Former Minister and senior BRS leader T Harish Rao slammed the Congress government for deliberately misleading the public and jeopardising Telangana’s hard-won irrigation gains for political convenience. He urged the Congress government to stop its propaganda, acknowledge BRS’s achievements in irrigation sector, and complete the pending works with sincerity.

 

In a strong counter, Harish Rao dismissed Irrigation Minister N Uttam Kumar Reddy’s claims that the permission for the Sitarama Lift Irrigation Project was pending. He charged that despite clearances from the Central Water Commission (CWC) and the Hydrology department for the Sitarama project, the Congress leaders were peddling misinformation. He stated that the Detailed Project Report (DPR) for the project was submitted in 2018.
