The Andhra Pradesh government squarely blamed previous Telugu Desam Party rule for the delay in the construction of Polavaram irrigation project. It also said that the previous TDP government’s ‘unmindful and wrong policies’ had impacted the project and its works in the ‘worst possible manner’.
Addressing a press conference on Monday, Water Resources Minister Ambati Rambabu said that N. Chandrababu Naidu, while he was in power, committed “historic blunders” in the execution of Polavaram project.
