TDP hails Srujala Sravanthi as game-changer for north AP

Visakhapatnam, Sep 12 (UNI) Telugu Desam Party state president and MLA Palla Srinivasa Rao has asserted that Chief Minister N. Chandrababu Naidu’s farsighted vision is set to transform the fortunes of North Andhra Pradesh, with the revival of the Uttarandhra Sujala Sravanthi project promising to turn long-held agrarian aspirations into reality.
Addressing the media at the TDP office in Gajuwaka today, Srinivasa Rao said the project, envisaged to provide irrigation to eight lakh acres and drinking water to nearly 30 lakh people would become a lifeline for the region.
“With a water network centred around Visakhapatnam, the filling of the Yeluru reservoir through the Polavaram left canal, and the interlinking of the Vamsadhara, Nagavali and Champavathi rivers, the Chief Minister has once again demonstrated his hallmark of long range planning. He has set a target to complete the project within two years, a move that will decisively alter the lives of millions,” he observed.
