Congress demands probe by a SC Judge into Medigadda barrage leak

Telangana Pradesh Congress Committee (TPCC) president A. Revanth Reddy has demanded that a Supreme Court Judge should investigate the leakage in the piers of the Medigadda Barrage.

Addressing a press conference on Saturday in wake of National Dam Safety Authority (NDSA) report, Mr. Reddy urged Prime Minister Narendra Modi to personally inspect the Barrage during his next visit to Telangana to understand the situation first hand.

Accusing Chief Minister K. Chandrashekhar Rao and his family of amassing wealth, he alleged that in the two term, the BRS government has been focussing on redesigning Congress-proposed projects, rather than fulfilling his promises. He said, KCR government had changed the Pranahita Chevella project into Kaleshwaram, which deviated from the original engineering plans.
