The Congress has dashed off letters to the President and the Telangana Governor seeking an investigation by the Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) into the failure of Kaleshwaram Lift Irrigation scheme barrages.
In separate letters addressed to the President and Governor on Friday, TPCC vice-president G. Niranjan referred to the cracks in the piers of Medigadda barrage and subsequent visit of the National Dam Safety Authority (NDSA) and its report faulting the government.
In view of the the report and considering the financial loss and the likely bid by the State government to cover up the damage, the TPCC leader requested the President and the Governor to direct Centre to oversee the repairs and safety of the three barrages of Kaleshwaram project to avoid human loss.
