CPI Andhra Pradesh secretary K. Ramakrishna on Wednesday blamed Chief Minister Y.S. Jagan Mohan Reddy for the delay in commissioning the Polavaram irrigation project, alleging that that the ‘reverse tendering process did not yield the desired results’.
“What was achieved by the reverse tendering process?. The project-displaced families are yet to receive full compensation. They are yet to be rehabilitated,” Mr. Ramakrishna told the media here on Wednesday.
He said that the Chief Minister had the target of June 2022 to commission the project. “Now, he (Mr. Jagan Mohan Reddy) is blaming the previous TDP government for his failure to meet the target. He needs to fight with the Centre instead of attacking the opposition parties,” said Mr. Ramakrishna.
