Farmers’ bodies urge CM to take up the issue with the Centre
The joy of farmers over the completion of first phase of the long-pending Pula Subbaiah Veligonda project will be ephemeral if urgent steps are not taken for inclusion of the project in the gazette notification issued by the Centre, a group of ryots in Prakasam district has said. The farmers from the district want Chief Minister Y.S. Jagan Mohan Reddy to direct the Irrigation Department officials to write a fresh letter, urging the Centre to include this project in the gazette notification considering the fact that the command area of more than the ₹7500-crore project is mostly drought-prone akin to Anantapur and next only to Jaisalmer in Rajasthan, the driest district in the country, said All India Kisan Sangharsh Coordination Committee Prakasam district convenor Ch.Ranga Rao. He took stock of the development on Sunday with various farmers’ organisations in the district, including the Andhra Pradesh Rythu Sangam and the N.G.Ranga Kisan Sabha.
