HYDERABAD: Requests from Telangana and non-compliance of provisions in Krishna River Management Board (KRMB) and Godavari River Management Board (GRMB) forced the Union ministry of jal shakti to defer implementation of the gazette notification for six more months. Two separate gazette notifications for KRMB and GRMB were issued by the Centre on April 1.
This means that both Telangana and AP can take approvals for their pending projects for next six months and complete them. Also, both the states can deposit Rs 200 crore each to KRMB and GRMB for their functioning. The latest deadline is July 2022.
