Revanth Appeals to PM for National Status to Dam Project

29 Dec 2023 CW Team

Telangana Chief Minister A. Revanth Reddy has reached out to Prime Minister Narendra Modi, pressing for the grant of national status to a pivotal dam project. The plea is rooted in the adherence to the stipulations laid out in the Andhra Pradesh Reorganisation Act of 2014, which holds paramount importance in the regional context.

The dam project in question holds strategic importance for Telangana, and Revanth Reddy underscores the imperative nature of its national status. This designation is not only symbolic but also carries tangible implications for the project's funding, support, and execution, aligning with the commitments made during the bifurcation of Andhra Pradesh.

The appeal reflects Telangana's pursuit of central assistance and recognition for crucial regional development initiatives. As the Chief Minister advocates for the elevation of the dam project to national status, the broader implications on water resource management and regional infrastructure development come to the forefront, emphasising the intersection of state interests and national commitments in the context of India's dynamic federal structure.
