Chief Minister Y.S. Jagan Mohan Reddy told officials of the Water Resources Department (WRD) to focus on speedy execution of the Polavaram project by giving due importance to the left main canal works and filling the gaps in the Earth-Cum-Rock Fill (ECRF) dam. He also insisted that other major pending projects like Vamsadhara, Thotapalli and Veligonda should be expedited in order to cater to the growing irrigation requirements at the earliest.
Addressing a review meeting on the WRD at his camp office on Monday, Mr. Jagan Mohan Reddy said the progress of works should be taken stock of every fortnight so that the delays could be covered and wanted an action plan for it to be prepared.
