Telangana Chief Minister KCR is showing the AP government that it is not a good idea to be at war with him, with his latest decisions regarding the water disputes between the two states. KCR has decided to go against the Krishna Board’s orders, questioning why the Telangana government should abide by these orders when the AP government continues to construct Rayalasaeema Lift Irrigation Project and the RDS Right Canal. The Telangana government is now using the Krishna river water completely, for the production of electricity, against the Krishna Board’s orders.
There is a slight flood in Srisailam, and that water, coupled with the dead storage water is also being used for the production of electricity, by the Telangana government. Water from Nagarjuna Sagar is also being used for the production of electricity, and even the Pulichintala Project Power House is being used at full capacity. The water at Pulichintala is highly crucial for the Krishna delta, and nearly 20 Mega Watts of electricity is being produced here, which means that the water here will be used up within one week.
The Telangana government has also given orders for a 100% production of electricity, with complete security deployed in those areas. This would cause major problems for Krishna Delta and for Rayalaseema as well. While the AP Ministers are saying that they are writing letters, and questioning these acts, they arent bringing enough pressure on the Telangana government, which would ultimately affect the people of AP the most.
