Water Resources Minister Ambati Rambabu on October 25 said that heavy inflows into the Godavari river between the lower and upper cofferdams was hindering the construction activity at the Polavaram irrigation project in Eluru district.
Mr. Rambabu was addressing the media after inspecting the project site and taking stock of the ongoing works.
“The presence of water and continuous inflow between the upper and lower cofferdams are the major factors for the slowdown in the construction activity at the project site,” said Mr. Rambabu.
