‘Building strong case before KWDT-II, being vigilant helps protect State interests’

Protection of the rightful share of Telangana in the Krishna waters is not possible just with adopting a resolution in the Assembly and holding a ‘Chalo Nalgonda’ meet but it is possible with people being vigilant all the time, Bharat Rashtra Samithi (BRS) president and former chief minister K. Chandrashekhar Rao said.

Achieving the due share in Krishna waters would require presenting a strong case before the Brijesh Kumar Tribunal (KWDT-II) till it apportions water based on parameters followed globally, he said addressing a public meeting organised by the party here on Tuesday to mobilise people’s voice in support of the State’s due share in the river waters.

Even the resolution adopted in the Assembly was not comprehensive from the point of view of the State’s interests as it lacked the all-important hydel generation aspect at the two common projects in it, the BRS president said making it clear that the Chalo Nalgonda meet was not against anybody.
