Doubts over feasibility of Godavari project

The Hindu  

The Forum for Good Governance expressed serious doubts over the feasibility of the Godavari drinking water project as it suffered from lack of funds, water and power. Speaking to presspersons here on Thursday, he said the project envisaged drawing 30 tmcft of water from Pranahita project which was a non starter. Again, to lift water from Pranahita about 3000 MW of power was required and with the present state of affairs it would be very difficult to provide so much power, Mr. Reddy said. Pending construction of Pranahita project, he said the Water Board had decided to draw water from Yellampally in Karimnagar district, while the water available in this project was already earmarked for local drinking water needs and irrigation to neighbouring areas.
