BJP Accuses BRS of Not Submitting Proposals for Palamuru-Rangareddy LIS

Deccan Chronicle  

Hyderabad: The war of words between the BRS and the BJP over the grant of national project status to the Palamuru-Rangareddy lift irrigation scheme continued on Sunday, with the latter accusing the state government of not submitting any proposal to the Centre on the project. Karimnagar MP and former state BJP chief Bandi Sanjay Kumar alleged that the BRS government did not allocate a single tmc ft of water to the PRLIS in addition to agreeing for 299 tmc ft as the state’s share in Krishna waters against its rightful claim of 575 tmc ft. “How can the Central Water Commission approve a project when the state government did not allocate any water,” he questioned. In the video Modi is seen ridiculing Congress leader Rahul Gandhi’s assurance to grant national project status to PRLIS, asking why the “ma-beta sarkar” slept over the proposal during the 10-year UPA rule. In a counter tweet, Sanjay, referring to a reply given by the Union Jal Shakti minister on March 19, 2003, in the Lok Sabha, said the BRS government was “apparently busy with the Kaleshwaram scam” ignored sending proposals for inclusion of both projects in the national project scheme.
