Musi riverfront development suffers a setback
Hyderabad: Whatever little development that Musi Riverfront Project has seen has faced a setback due to floods following heavy rains last month and release of 23,000 cusecs of water from Himayatsagar and 12,000 cusecs of water from Osmansagar. Musi Riverfront Development Corporation Limited authorities maintained that before taking up the development work at Nagole, they had taken into account the major devastation caused due to flash floods in October last year. When asked about future challenges as Musi River will most likely face similar situations every time it rains heavily, Sudheer Reddy said there plans to raise the central portion of Musi depicting the shape of a quarter moon during dry season, so that the water streams could be regulated. After formation of Telangana, the TRS government decided to give the river a facelift at an estimated cost of Rs 740 crore, with 70 per cent of funding coming from National River Conservation Directorate.
