Mahabubnagar: The District Congress Committee (DCC), Mahabubnagar will accord a grand welcome to Chief Minister A Revanth Reddy who is scheduled to tour the erstwhile district on June 4 and 5. DCC president Sanjeev Mudiraj said that the drought-prone Palamuru region, which has long struggled with water scarcity, drinking water shortages, and migration, is now witnessing a historic transformation under the Congress government's irrigation initiatives.
During the visit, the Chief Minister, accompanied by Irrigation Minister N Uttam Kumar Reddy and other Ministers, will review the progress of several key irrigation projects across the district. The inspection will include the Narlapur Reservoir under the Palamuru-Rangareddy Lift Irrigation Scheme, Lift-1 of the MGKLIS project at Yellur, the Vattem Reservoir network, Karivena Reservoir, and the Uddandapur Reservoir works.
The Chief Minister will also join Karnataka Minor Irrigation Minister N S Boseraju for an aerial survey of the Koilsagar Project and the proposed barrages on the Krishna and Bhima rivers. The Congress government remains committed to securing Telangana's rightful share of river waters through inter-state coordination and cooperation, Sanjeev Mudiraj asserted. As part of the tour, the Chief Minister will inaugurate the newly constructed Irrigation Office Complex at Uyyalawada, highlighting the government's focus on strengthening irrigation infrastructure and administrative facilities.
The DCC president has appealed to farmers, youth, and the general public to participate in large numbers in the massive public meeting scheduled at Uddandapur on June 5 at 4 pm and extend their support to the government's efforts to transform Palamuru into a prosperous and fertile region.
