TPCC chief accuses KCR of having a hidden agenda
Telangana Congress president A. Revanth Reddy has placed the blame squarely on Chief Minister K. Chandrasekhar Rao for the ongoing water dispute between Andhra Pradesh and Telangana stating that the CM had deliberately stayed away from Krishna River Management Board (KRMB) meetings. Speaking to reporters here, he reminded that despite pleas from the Congress party and other irrigation experts the Chief Minister chose to ignore the issue totally before being forced to act due to intervention from the Court case. He said both Chief Minister Chandrasekhar Rao and then Irrigation Minister T. Harish Rao had agreed in New Delhi for 299 TMCft usage for Telangana and 512 TMCft for Andhra Pradesh for one year. However, they continued the same usage for the next five years without even discussing the new allotment for the new State.More Related News
