Telangana State to block height change in Polavaram dam

Hyderabad: The Telangana government has in principle decided to lodge two complaints against AP with regard to construction of Polavaram Dam as well as the Lift Scheme. Irrigation minister T. Harish Rao on Friday said that it is most unfortunate that AP Chief Minister N. Chandrababu Naidu asked AP irrigation officials to explore the possibility of raising Polavaram Dam’s height by 15 feet from the proposed +150 feet, unmindful of the dangers to Khammam district, which is in Telangana.

“Already Telangana has been expressing apprehensions about Polavaram Dam’s height which is now pegged at +150 feet, for it will submerge all the tribal tracks and the famous Srirama temple in Bhadrachalam. If another 15 feet is raised, we can write off what now remains of Khammam district. We will complain to the Central Water Commission as well as the Godavari River Management Board about this,” Mr Harish Rao said.

With regard to diversion of an additional 80 TMC ft of Godavari water to Krishna Delta through Lift schemes, the Telangana is already in the process of preparing complaints to both Godavari and Krishna River Management Boards. “I have asked officials to lodge a formal complaint on this. The AP government has already issued orders of sanctioning Rs 1,300 crore on the Lift Scheme, which is a clear violation of the AP Reorganisation Act. Approvals of the river Boards must have been taken before,” he said.
