The Congress party has announced a policy shift, proposing to integrate the Sundilla barrage of the Kaleshwaram project into the larger Pranahita-Chevella irrigation initiative. The move aims to optimize water resource management and improve irrigation coverage across Telangana, potentially benefiting thousands of farmers in the region. Party leaders emphasized that the integration would enhance water distribution efficiency and support agricultural productivity, aligning with the state’s developmental goals.
This revised stance reflects a strategic approach to maximize the utility of existing water infrastructure while addressing regional water needs. By linking the Sundilla barrage with the Pranahita-Chevella project, authorities hope to ensure better water availability for farming, reduce dependency on seasonal rainfall, and promote sustainable agricultural practices. The proposal has sparked discussions among policymakers, farmers, and political analysts about its feasibility and long-term impact on the state’s irrigation network.
