Rayalaseema Steering Committee chairman Byreddy Rajasekhara Reddy on Friday lashed out at the State and Central governments for being indifferent to the serious implications of the construction of the Upper Bhadra project in Karnataka.
“Chief Minister Y.S. Jagan Mohan Reddy is not aware that even his own Pulivendula constituency will go dry with the project coming up across the State border. Such indifference is unacceptable and the people of Rayalaseema will have to either question the government today or watch their throats get parched,” he cautioned at a meeting of students of Sri Venkateswara University here.
