Jagan did disservice to Rayalaseema by pre-closing 102 irrigation projects in Andhra Pradesh, alleges Chandrababu Naidu

Telugu Desam Party (TDP) national president N. Chandrababu Naidu has alleged that the YSR Congress Party (YSRCP) government resorted to the pre-closure of 102 irrigation projects in the Rayalaseema region of Andhra Pradesh due to vested interests coupled with its inability to take them forward. 

He said the expenditure incurred on the projects undertaken in the parched region during the YSRCP tenure was just about ₹2,011 crore when compared to ₹12,411 crore spent during the TDP regime. 

On the whole, then TDP government had spent roughly ₹68,295 crore on irrigation projects in the State when compared to ₹22,165 crore by the YSRCP government, said the former Chief Minister.
