She said the government had directly credited the amount of the scheme in the bank accounts of the farmers without giving any scope for the involvement of middlemen. She said the early completion of Vamsadhara, Jhanjavati and other pending projects would ensure dedicated water supply for thousands of acres of barren lands of both Vizianagaram, Srikakulam and other districts. Ms. Anitha charged that the previous YSRCP government had completely ignored the development of backward North Andhra region and it was evident with little allocation for the pending projects.
