Andhra Pradesh: Ambati Rambabu blames TDP government for delay in Polavaram project

While reiterating that the Polavaram project poses no danger to Telangana, Water Resources Minister Ambati Rambabu has blamed the TDP government for the  inordinate delay in its construction.

Addressing the media here on Thursday, Mr. Rambabu insisted that the diaphragm wall, on which ₹400 crore had been spent, was damaged because the cofferdam, which should have been built first, was stopped at the foundation stage due to faulty execution. The same was pointed out by the Central Water Commission (CWC), he added.

‘CWC caution ignored’
