The Telangana government has requested the Central Water Commission (CWC) to take immediate steps to resolve all the concerns raised by it, in line with the submission made by the Centre in the compliance affidavit filed before the Supreme Court.
Engineer-in-Chief (General-Irrigation) C. Muralidhar brought to the notice of the CWC chairman that all the concerns raised by Telangana on backwater and submergence effect due to Polavaram project, as also the protection measures sought in consonance with the Godavari Water Disputes Tribunal Award, remain unaddressed till date, in contrast to assurance given by the Centre through a compliance affidavit filed by the Ministry of Jal Shakti.
