Prime Minister Narendra Modi, during a public meeting in Anakapalle, Andhra Pradesh, expressed his concerns over the unfinished projects that were initiated by the late YS Rajasekhara Reddy, father of the current Chief Minister YS Jagan Mohan Reddy.
The Prime Minister specifically pointed out the Uttar Andhra Sujala Sravanthi irrigation project, a significant initiative started by YSR Reddy, which is yet to be completed. This project was aimed at improving the irrigation facilities in the region, thereby enhancing agricultural productivity.
“YS Jagan Mohan Reddy inherited his father’s political legacy but has not been able to complete the projects his father had started,” Modi said, drawing attention to the state of the irrigation project.
These comments come at a time when the state government is facing criticism for its handling of various development projects. Critics argue that the current administration has not been able to effectively carry forward the initiatives started by YSR Reddy’s government.
The Prime Minister’s comments have sparked a new discussion on the status of development projects in Andhra Pradesh, particularly those initiated during YSR Reddy’s tenure. The state government’s response to these criticisms and the measures it will take to ensure the completion of these projects are being closely watched.
The Uttar Andhra Sujala Sravanthi project, once completed, is expected to bring about a significant improvement in the agricultural output of the region, benefiting a large number of farmers who depend on agriculture for their livelihood.
As the political discourse intensifies, the people of Andhra Pradesh are keenly following the developments, hoping for a quick resolution that leads to the completion of the much-needed irrigation project.
