some people (obviously referring to KCR’s family members) are creating misconceptions. 68 to 70 percent of the water lost to Telangana because of the BRS government
Uttam Kumar Reddy alleged that Telangana did not get the water it should have by gravity. He criticized the BRS government for doing injustice to the people of Telangana. Rs. 27,500 crores were spent and not even a single acre was given water. He questioned why the Board was not asked if 599 TMC was required including the projects under construction. The irregularities in irrigation projects in Telangana in these ten years have not happened in any state in independent India.
