YSRCP Accuses N. Chandrababu Naidu of Taking Undue Credit for Veligonda Project The YSRCP party on Monday accused Andhra Pradesh Chief Minister N. Chandrababu Naidu of misrepresenting his role in the Veligonda Project, a major infrastructure initiative in the state. YSRCP leaders Lella Appi Reddy and TJR Sudhakar Babu claimed that the bulk of the project’s progress was achieved during the tenures of former Chief Ministers YS Rajasekhara Reddy and YS Jagan Mohan Reddy, not under Naidu’s leadership. The allegations came as the YSRCP addressed media at its Central Office in Vijayawada, emphasizing the historical context and contributions of previous administrations. The leaders highlighted that the Veligonda Project, a 37-kilometer tunnel system, saw significant advancements during the combined tenure of YS Rajasekhara Reddy and YS Jagan Mohan Reddy. They stated that over 31 kilometers of the tunnel works were completed under their leadership, far exceeding the 6.68 kilometers executed during Naidu’s previous terms as Chief Minister. Additionally, they noted that 10.56 kilometers of work were completed specifically under YS Jagan’s regime. The YSRCP emphasized that the project’s critical milestones, including the completion of Tunnel-1 and Tunnel-2, were achieved in January 2021 and January 2024, respectively. These tunnels were formally dedicated to the nation by YS Jagan in March 2024. The YSRCP leaders also criticized Naidu for failing to deliver meaningful progress on the project during his eight years in office, despite laying the foundation stone in 1996. They pointed out that the NDA coalition government, which Naidu was part of, had not completed rehabilitation works for project-affected families or released compensation for over 27 months.#n_chandrababu_naidu #veligonda_project #ys_jagan_mohan_reddy #ysrccp #ys_rajasekhara_reddy
A.P. CM Played Key Role in Completing Veligonda Project, Says Minister Nimmala The Veligonda Project, a major infrastructure initiative aimed at harnessing water from the Krishna River for irrigation and water supply, has been declared fully operational after years of delays and challenges. Water Resources Minister Nimmala Rama Naidu highlighted the role of Chief Minister Nara Chandrababu Naidu in overcoming obstacles and ensuring the project’s completion within a two-year timeframe since the coalition government took office in 2024. Speaking at a public event in Gantavanipalli, Markapuram district, Minister Nimmala emphasized that the project’s foundation stone was laid three decades ago, and its successful conclusion marked a significant achievement for the state. The project, which involves diverting Krishna River water to the Nallamala Sagar reservoir, faced numerous hurdles, including legal disputes and bureaucratic delays. Minister Nimmala stated that the Chief Minister prioritized the Veligonda Project from the outset, issuing clear directives to complete it by 2026. Regular oversight was maintained, with the Chief Minister reviewing progress every 15 to 20 days. To ensure financial stability, the Finance Department was instructed to prevent any funding shortages, enabling the project to proceed without interruptions. Technical milestones were achieved during the construction phase. Approximately 1.80 lakh cubic metres of soil were excavated at Kollam Vagu, while hydraulic regulators and 3,250 cubic metres of concrete work were completed. The project’s most complex component, a 4,924-metre-long tunnel with 6,988 metres of lining, was finished within the targeted two-year period.#nara_chandrababu_naidu #veligonda_project #nimmala_rama_naidu #gantavanipalli #nallamala_sagar
