The Leader of Opposition, YS Jagan Mohan Reddy seems to be a master in masking his father YS Rajasekhara Reddy’s wrongdoings claims TDP leaders. The Opposition Leader the other day criticized the government for not paying the rest of the 150 Crore compensation to Telangana government for Pulichintala Project. He says if the compensation is paid and the villages are evacuated, then the government would have filled the total 45 TMCs in the project instead of the 30 TMCs now.
But then, Jagan has got his facts wrong. Even if the villages are evacuated, the project can not be filled up and it is due to father. Back then. YSR Government helped Pulichintala contractor big time. The Project which was supposed to have a heavy duty Concrete Dam was changed to Earth Dam to benefit the contractor. Also the gates of the project were reduced from 33 to 24.
The gates were reduced after the contract was awarded. Back then several experts including a team from the center warned the government against it but YSR did not listen to anyone. Now, Chandrababu Naidu government has started the repair work to strengthen the dam. Until that is completed, the project can not be filled up to its maximum capacity. But then Jagan masks all that and still tries to do politics, alleges the ruling party leaders.
