Cabinet move to accelerate execution of Polavaram irrigation project
The State Cabinet, chaired by Chief Minister N. Chandrababu Naidu, approved measures to accelerate the Polavaram Irrigation Project. These interventions include an additional ₹24.51 crore for Package No. 64's headworks and the "pre-closure" of legacy contracts for packages 8, 8A, and 8B. The Cabinet aims to resolve contractual and technical bottlenecks that have delayed water infrastructure development for nearly two decades. These decisions are intended to meet the State government's target of completing the works by June 2026.
