TS asks KRMB for information on Srisailam and water drawal facilities based on it

Telangana has expressed discontent at the Krishna River Management Board (KRMB) for not providing it with certain information/ data/ documents which formed the basis for formulation of the draft of rule curves for the operation of joint water storage facilities — Srisailam and Nagarjunasagar — in spite of repeated requests.

In a letter addressed to Chairman of the river board M.P. Singh, Engineer-in-Chief (General-Irrigation) of Telangana C. Muralidhar said on Saturday that three letters were addressed to the board already on July 2, July 29 and August 11 requesting the information/ data, particularly on Srisailam reservoir and various water drawal facilities based on it.

He reminded the river board Chairman that minutes of the second meeting of the reservoir management committee (RMC) held on May 30 had clearly mentioned that the rule curves for the two common projects have been prepared incorporating provisions of KWDT-I Award and Technical Advisory Committee (TAC) approved notes for various components and the inter-State agreement on drinking water supply to Chennai.
