Kurnool: YSRCP MLA of Kurnool SV Mohan Reddy observed the water capacity of Sunkesula barrage. He was informed by officials that there was a chance for provision of drinking water to the people from Sunkesula for only three months. The collector had been informed earlier about the impending drinking water problem but he had ordered for release of 4000 Cusecs of water for irrigation. The farmers had been asked not to go with sowing for new crop but they ignored it. So providing them irrigation water at the cost of people not having drinking water was saddening, Mohan Reddy mentioned.

He mentioned that 7 lakh residents of Kurnool now were going to face drinking water scarcity due to the Government’s wrong decision. Lack of drinking water was certain if it did not rain within three months, told a concerned Mohan Reddy. He remarked that the Government was answerable if drinking water was at stake. Mohan Reddy informed that he would meet Telangana minister Harish Rao and discuss and stop the ongoing seize of water. He mentioned that Sunkesula was supposed to receive 1 TMC of water from Tungabhadra and stated that he would demand the minister to take necessary steps.
