Congress slams Naidu for accusing YSR of neglecting Polavaram project

Hindustan Times  

Senior Congress leader and former Rajya Sabha member KVP Ramachandra Rao on Wednesday took exception to Andhra Pradesh chief minister N Chandrababu Naidu’s statement accusing former chief minister YS Rajasekha Reddy of neglecting the Polavaram major irrigation project being built on Godavari river. Senior Congress leader and former Rajya Sabha member KVP Ramachandra Rao on Wednesday took exception to Andhra Pradesh chief minister N Chandrababu Naidu’s statement accusing former chief minister YS Rajasekha Reddy of neglecting the Polavaram major irrigation project being built on Godavari river In an open letter to Naidu, the Congress leader said while he would appreciate the commitment of the present government to complete the Polavaram project, the lifeline of Andhra Pradesh, by 2027, he was very much pained to blame it on YSR for the inordinate delay in taking up the project. “That UPA chairperson Sonia Gandhi had visited Polavaram twice during the Congress government itself showed how much importance it had given to the project,” he said. Rao also asserted that it was during the YSR government that the right and left canals of Polavaram project were constructed to a large extent at a cost of ₹5,000 crore.
