Cabinet may initiate action against those responsible for irregularities in Kaleshwaram project

Hyderabad, Aug 3 (UNI) The crucial Telangana Cabinet meeting chaired by Chief Minister A Revanth Reddy tomorrow is likely to initiate criminal proceedings or departmental action against those found responsible for alleged irregularities in the execution of the Kaleshwaram project during the previous BRS government. After a 15-month probe into the sinking of sme piers of Medigadda barrage and damages to Annaram and sundilla barrages which are part of the Kaleshwara Lift Irrigation Scheme (KLIS), the Justice PC Ghose one-man commission submitted its 650-page report to Telangana government on July 31, 2025. The report was also officially handed over the Chief Minister on Friday. After discussing the findings of the Justice PC Ghose Commission report on the Kaleshwaram Lift Irrigation Scheme (KLIS), the government may direct the Anti corruption Bureau (ACB) or the Crime Investigation Department (CID) to take further action based on the report submitted by the Commission. Following this, the government constituted a high-level committee comprising of Senior Secretaries from the Irrigation, law and General Administration departments, to examine the report and prepare a detailed survey for presentation in the cabinet meeting. Irrigation Minister Kumar Reddy, who conducted a meting with the committee today evening on the preparation of the report submitted it to the cabinet. The cabinet will deliberate on the commission's findings and the committee's brief survey to decide on appropriate action. Speaking at various programmes in Peddapalli district today, Irrigation Minister Uttam Kumar Reddy confirmed that the state cabinet would soon discuss the report on the Kaleshwaram project and take a policy decision. He reiterated that Telangana was committed to protecting its irrigation rights and would continue to resist any attempts to divert Godavari water out of the state. The Minister criticised the Kaleshwaram Lift Irrigation Project, stating that ₹1 lakh crore had been wasted and claimed that the Medigadda barrage had failed to provide any benefit. He pointed out that although Kaleshwaram passes through Manthani constituency, it had not irrigated even a single acre. Though Telangana had still achieved record-level paddy production, showing that the state's agricultural performance was not dependent on Kaleshwaram alone, he added. UNI KNR RKM

Shivraj Chouhan echoes PM's call, urges citizens to use indigenous products

Union Agriculture and Farmers Welfare Minister Shivraj Singh Chouhan on Sunday once again echoed the Prime Minister's appeal by urging citizens to purchase products made within the country. Prime Minister Narendra Modi had on Saturday, during the disbursement of the 20th instalment of the PM-Kisan Samman Nidhi in Varanasi, urged the nation to buy indigenous products. Reaffirming the government's commitment to strengthening the economy, the Union Agriculture Minister reiterated the Prime Minister's appeal today: "Dear sisters and brothers--nieces and nephews, everyone lives for themselves--insects, birds, and animals. But what's the point of living only for oneself? We must live for our country. Living for the nation is what the Honourable Prime Minister taught us yesterday. He appealed to us to buy only those products for our homes that are made in our own country." "Dear sisters and brothers, whether something is made in your village, in a nearby city, in your district, in your state, or anywhere in our country, buy only those things. The Indian economy is growing rapidly. Today, we are ranked fourth in the world, and very soon, we will reach the third position. And this nation of 1.44 billion people is a huge market. If we resolve to buy and use only things made in our country, then our farmers, our small-scale producers, self-help groups, and local artisans- everyone will see their income increase. And when their earnings grow, our economy will become stronger. Why should our money go abroad? Let it provide livelihoods to our own children. I will live for my country, and you too should live for the means, buy only products that are Made in India. Thank you!" Earlier, he said that the welfare of farmers is a top priority of the government under the leadership of Prime Minister Narendra Modi. Addressing the gathering of farmers, officials and dignitaries in Patna, Agriculture Minister Chouhan said that with the help of the Direct Benefit Transfer scheme, the government is ensuring that the assistance reaches directly into the accounts of the farmers. Highlighting the measures for farmers' welfare, under the leadership of Prime Minister Narendra Modi, Chouhan said that with the help of DBT (Direct Benefit Transfer), the government is ensuring that the assistance reaches directly into the accounts of the farmers. He said, "Earlier, farmers used to get only a few pennies of Rs 1 sent by the government, but now they receive the whole amount without any leakage.

MNF accuses ‘secret plot' by Mizoram CM to shift capital

1 2 Aizawl: CM Lalduhoma chaired a high-level meeting in June that discussed a master plan to transform Thenzawl, the second-largest town in his Serchhip constituency, into a Peace City. An official statement said the Union ministry of housing and urban affairs had already agreed to allocate Rs 10 crore to the Mizoram govt for preparing the master plan, of which Rs 1 crore (10 per cent) has already been released. Opposition parties trained guns on the CM, saying the latter has a hidden agenda behind the proposal. The Mizo National Front (MNF), Mizoram's main opposition party, has accused the CM of secretly attempting to shift the state capital from Aizawl to Thenzawl, located in his own constituency, without public consultation. MNF general secretary Zodinpuia claimed that while Lalduhoma publicly framed the initiative as a Peace City project to decongest Aizawl, he allegedly concealed his actual intention of making Thenzawl the new state capital. "This is a betrayal of the people's trust," he said, demanding that the CM clarify his position. The chief minister's office has not issued any response to the MNF's allegations.
