Telangana prioritizes water rights and infrastructure

The Telangana government is very serious about protecting its share of water from the Krishna and Godavari rivers.

They had a meeting to check on the progress of a big irrigation project called Sitarama LIS.

The government said they won't let any other state take their water and will fight for their rights.

They also talked about finishing this project quickly to give water to farmers.

The government has already given a lot of money for this project.

A leader from the BRS party, T. Harish Rao, warned the government not to abolish Siddipet district.

He said the district has seen a lot of development and people won't let it be merged with another district.
