Telangana CM KCR succeeds where others failed
However, the persistent threat of drought and shortage circumstances made it one of the nine most underdeveloped districts in the nation that was alerted. A massive exodus was brought on by the ground reality, which was pretty horrifying. In pursuit of new pastures, more than half of the 40 lakh inhabitants abandoned their houses. The undivided State's successive governments lavishly pledged to turn around the fortunes of Palamuru. The rulers, however, were found to have poor delivery. All of their pledges proved to be empty platitudes.
Only after gaining self-rule did palamuru begin to truly change. Since cm KCR assumed control of the State administration, he has prioritized the water-scarce southern area and begun addressing its requirements by using a multi-pronged approach.
Now there is a chance that the palamuru Ranga reddy Lift Irrigation Scheme (PRLIS) would completely alter the economic landscape of the State's southern area. Forces inside the State and beyond continued determined to sabotage the development of the project's construction because they were envious of his achievement, but the chief minister was unyielding. He pressed forward, outwitting every obstacle that stood in the way of the project's implementation, and the multi-stage lift irrigation technique will soon become a reality.
Over eight lakh acres will receive irrigation once the chief minister inaugurates the project's drinking water component on september 16 and it also shortly completes its irrigation component. It would include more than 84,000 acres of the Achampet constituency, which will benefit from the building of the Umamaheswara Lift Irrigation Scheme.
The Kalwakurthy project, which extended irrigation to 1.6 lakh acres, is a result of the Chief Minister's efforts to meet the region's residents' needs for drinking water and irrigation. Water was provided to 1.2 lakh acres through the Nettempadu project and 1.4 lakh acres through the Bhima project, respectively.
Another 8000 acres might be irrigated as a result of the Koilsagar project. The ongoing work on the canal system and distributaries of the irrigation projects was completed more quickly thanks to the Chief Minister's careful monitoring of the current projects. Once PRLIS is finished, almost 20 lakh acres of the former mahabubnagar will have guaranteed access to irrigation.
The palamuru area is renowned for having the most ponds, which supply a sizable portion of its irrigation requirements. In the undivided State, many of the ponds and tanks were disappeared. But things are beginning to change. After 30 years, the Kakatiyas' Ganapasamudram pond in Kalwakurthi had reached its full capacity. Over 2.7 lakh acres might be irrigated by the ponds and tanks. Little more than 50,000 acres used to receive water from them prior to the State's split.
