Chief Minister A. Revanth Reddy alleged that the maximum “water loot in Telangana” took place during BRS chief and former CM K. Chandrasekhar Rao’s tenure and claimed that KCR had “written a death warrant for Telangana projects by agreeing to unfavourable water-sharing arrangements.”
The CM claimed that KCR facilitated Andhra Pradesh’s “water exploitation” by effectively conceding 512 tmc out of 811 tmc of Krishna water to AP, leaving Telangana with just 299 tmc, which he termed as “writing a death sentence for Telangana.”
Mr. Revanth Reddy further alleged that during the BRS government’s tenure, even the Detailed Project Report (DPR) for the Palamuru–Rangareddy project was not properly submitted.
He reiterated that KCR had signed agreements accepting that Telangana needed only 299 tmc feet of Krishna water, which accounted for 34% of the water share, while the present government was fighting for a 71% share.
