Hyderabad; July 17 ( PMI ): Welcoming the Union Jal Shakthi Ministry’s Gazette notification announcing the purview of Krishna and Godavari River Management Boards (KRMB and GRMB), BJP State president Bandi Sanjay Kumar opined that the true color of both the Telangana and Andhra Pradesh Chief Ministers would be exposed.
Speaking to newsmen here on Friday, Sanjay accused both the Chief Ministers of trying to mislead the people through what he termed as “water politics” for their political gains. The BJP State chief wanted Chief Minister K Chandrashekhar Rao to clear his stand on Krishna waters. While AP Chief Minister YS Jaganmohan Reddy was shifting Krishna waters illegally, Chandrashekhar Rao was least bothered about the Telangana share, he alleged.
On June 18 and 19, 2020, the then Chief Ministers of both States in the presence of officials entered an agreement over Krishna River water sharing. While Telangana State was allocated 299 tmc, AP was earmarked 512 tmc of the river water.
