Telugu Desam Party (TDP) leader Bonda Umamaheswara Rao on Wednesday said that 70% of the Polavaram project works were completed during the TDP regime, and the works came to a ‘grinding halt’ after the YSRCP came to power.
Talking to the media, Mr. Rao said that the Polavaram project was a result of a consistent struggle, but the YSRCP government is not taking any steps to complete it.
Mr. Rao said TDP national president N. Chandrababu Naidu, during his Chief Ministerial tenure, used to conduct review meetings every Monday on Polavaram project . “It is not the case now. The YSRCP government has watered down the project,” he alleged.
