Minister for Transport and Backward Classes Welfare Ponnam Prabhakar on Saturday alleged that some elements were trying to create apprehensions among people about drinking water supply in Karimnagar with political motives.
In a statement, the Minister allayed apprehensions about drinking water scarcity in Karimnagar and elsewhere in the district.
He said: “We have already requested Minister for Irrigation N. Uttam Kumar Reddy to ensure the continuous supply of water for drinking and irrigation purposes during the ensuing peak summer season and held a meeting with the Irrigation and Mission Bhagiratha officials to take necessary steps to prevent water scarcity.”
