Andhra Pradesh: Ambati counters Naidu on Polavaram delay, damage

Deccan Chronicle  

Vijayawada: Former water resources minister Ambati Rambabu lashed out at Chief Minister N. Chandrababu Naidu for blaming the Jagan Mohan Reddy regime for repeated delays in completing the Polavaram irrigation project. Addressing a press conference here on Tuesday, he recalled what he called historic mistakes Chandrababu had made with regard to the project during his previous stint as the chief minister of AP. Rambabu advised Naidu not to repeat the old mistakes but pressurise the NDA government at the centre to fund the Polavaram project, get special category status for AP and fulfil all promises made at the time of bifurcating the state. Rambabu pointed out that the main reason for delay in Polavaram project had been Chandrababu’s decision to take up construction of the diaphragm wall without completing the spillway first, followed by the upper coffer dam and the lower coffer dam.
