Telangana to Skip Delhi Meet Over Polavaram Project
The Telangana government has said that its officials will not attend a meeting in Delhi on January 30 unless the central government stops Andhra Pradesh from working on a project called Polavaram-Nallamala Sagar.
The Telangana officials are upset because Andhra Pradesh is preparing a detailed plan for this project, which Telangana believes is illegal.
They have written a letter to the central government asking them to stop Andhra Pradesh from doing this.
If the central government does not respond, the Telangana officials will not go to the meeting.
The meeting is about sharing river water between the two states.
Telangana officials may skip a Delhi meeting on January 30 over the Polavaram-Nallamala Sagar project.
Telangana demands the Centre to halt Andhra Pradesh's preparation of the DPR for the project.

Andhra Pradesh is proceeding with the project despite instructions from the Ministry of Jal Shakti.
The Telangana government is waiting for a response from the Union ministry on their demand.
