Stating that the Kaleswaram project was a big fraud of this generation thrusted on Telangana, Congress has welcomed Chief Minister Revanth Reddy and Irrigation Minister Uttam Kumar Reddy’s decision to form a committee with the experts of Central Water Commission, National Dam Safety Authority and engineering experts to discuss the collapse of the Medigadda barrage.
Addressing a press conference here on Sunday, TPCC vice-president G. Niranjan alleged that the Kaleshwaram fraud was done directly under former Chief Minister K. Chandrasekhar Rao. He said even three months after the collapse of the Medigadda barrage, the engineering officials concerned were evasive in their responses and their sincerity is in question.
He alleged that the engineering officials put aside the interests of people and State, and bowed down to the feet of contractors and protected their interests, and disgraced Telangana in front of the country.
