Joorala Project Is Structurally Sound for 100 Years – MLA Bandla Krishna Mohan Reddy Urges Public to Reject Rumors
Joorala Project Is Structurally Sound for 100 Years – MLA Bandla Krishna Mohan Reddy Urges Public to Reject Rumors Gadwal: At a press meet held today at the MLA camp office in Gadwal district headquarters, Gadwal MLA Bandla Krishna Mohan Reddy firmly dismissed rumors about the safety of the Priyadarshini Joorala Project, stating that the structure is strong and secure for at least another 100 years. He urged people, especially political leaders and media personnel, to refrain from spreading baseless fears and instead focus on constructive dialogue that benefits the public. Visit by State Ministers and Political Controversy Referring to the recent visit by State Irrigation Minister Uttam Kumar Reddy and Fisheries and Youth Affairs Minister V. Srinivas Goud to Joorala Project and Rayalampadu Reservoir on Saturday, the MLA criticized remarks made by a former legislator who allegedly claimed the project could collapse due to heavy vehicular movement near it. "This kind of fear-mongering is neither responsible nor helpful. While there may be minor issues in the project, saying it is on the verge of collapse is completely false and misleading," said Bandla Krishna Mohan Reddy. 'People are being misled unnecessarily. These are not facts and are causing panic among locals.' Governments Aim to Build, Not Destroy He emphasized that no government, past or present, would ever wish harm on public infrastructure. On the contrary, all successive governments have worked to improve and modernize irrigation projects. 'The current government is continuing efforts to resolve existing issues and strengthen the structure wherever necessary, with public welfare as the ultimate goal.' Media Invited to Visit the Project The MLA also directly addressed the media: 'Claims that the internal condition of the dam is dangerous are not correct. Officials are safely inspecting the inside areas of the project, and the media is welcome to join us tomorrow (Monday) to see it firsthand. We want the public to know the truth.' He appealed to journalists to present accurate reports and avoid contributing to fear or misinformation. 'Let's not mislead the public. Come and see the truth for yourself.' Political Allegiance: 'I Support the Party of Development' Responding to criticism from some quarters about his political affiliations, Bandla Krishna Mohan Reddy clarified: 'I belong to the party of development. My support for the ruling party is solely to promote the growth of Gadwal constituency.' He added that farmers, traders, and the general public in Gadwal deserve better infrastructure and development. That is why he is supporting the government in power, to ensure the constituency becomes a model for others in the state. Development in Gadwal and Gattu Mandal Highlighting progress made under his tenure, the MLA pointed out that Gattu Mandal, once considered among the most illiterate areas in Asia, has now seen literacy rise to 62%. Similarly, urban and rural development projects have taken place across Gadwal: Construction of CC roads Development of drainage systems Upgrades in village infrastructure Expansion and beautification of Gadwal town Although some minor issues have caused delays in specific areas, the MLA assured that these would be addressed promptly. Final Commitment 'Until my last breath, I will strive for the development of the Gadwal constituency,' declared Bandla Krishna Mohan Reddy with emotion, reaffirming his commitment to the people. Key Participants at the Press Meet The event was attended by several local and district leaders including: Joint District Director Subhan Former MPP Pratap Goud Former ZPTC Rajasekhar Senior district leader G. Venugopal Former councillor Srinu Mudiraj Local leaders Govindu, Kurumanna Dharma Naidu, and other party workers and supporters. With political tensions brewing and misinformation spreading rapidly, MLA Bandla Krishna Mohan Reddy's invitation to journalists for a ground-level inspection of the Joorala Project reflects a transparent approach to public communication. It remains to be seen how the media and opposition leaders respond to this call for factual accuracy.

Indiramma Housing Scheme Beneficiaries Urged to Expedite Construction: 830 Houses Sanctioned for Dharur Mandal
Gadwal: District Additional Collector Lakshmi Narayana has called upon beneficiaries under the Indiramma Housing Scheme to expedite the construction of their houses. On Monday, he participated in a distribution program of Indiramma housing sanction letters at Dharur Mandal headquarters, alongside Gadwal MLA Bandla Krishna Mohan Reddy. Addressing the gathering, Additional Collector Lakshmi Narayana emphasized that the government is committed to the welfare of the poor and underprivileged sections by launching multiple developmental schemes. He said the Indiramma Housing Scheme is being implemented with the goal of ensuring every homeless family has a permanent home. As part of the initiative, 3,500 houses have been sanctioned for the Gadwal Assembly constituency, with 830 houses allocated to Dharur Mandal in the first phase. The construction process, he said, is being carried out in a fully digital manner. Land verification for each beneficiary has been completed using Google Maps, photographic evidence, and official land records. From the commencement of construction, each stage is recorded through government mobile applications. Once the basement level is completed, beneficiaries receive up to ₹5 lakh directly into their bank accounts in a phased manner. He appealed to all beneficiaries to start and complete their house construction promptly, aiming to finish within six months. He added that the second phase of housing allotment would be announced soon. He also highlighted that government welfare schemes like Rythu Bharosa, Ration Cards, and subsidized rice are being implemented with the public's needs in mind and are already bringing positive changes in people's lives. MLA Bandla Krishna Mohan Reddy: Indiramma Realizing Dreams of the Poor MLA Bandla Krishna Mohan Reddy, speaking at the event, stated that continuous efforts are being made for the development of the district. He assured that any public issue will be addressed immediately and solutions will be implemented without delay. He said the government's welfare schemes are reaching every household, and the Indiramma Housing Scheme is helping fulfill the dream of owning a home for every poor family. He expressed pride in the fact that out of the 3,500 houses sanctioned for Gadwal constituency, 830 were allocated to Dharur Mandal alone. The MLA noted that the scheme is being implemented with full transparency—funds are being transferred directly into beneficiaries' bank accounts, eliminating the role of middlemen. He reiterated the government's commitment to ensuring that all eligible beneficiaries receive the benefits of welfare programs. Reflecting on the past hardships, the MLA said people once struggled with severe shortages of drinking water and irrigation, even leading many to migrate. Today, however, with developmental strides such as the Nettempadu Project providing irrigation water, farmers are now able to cultivate their lands locally. He also highlighted several key achievements of the state government: Increase in Rythu Bharosa assistance from ₹5,000 to ₹6,000. Provision of free electricity up to ₹200 for women to reduce household expenses. Free bus travel across Telangana for women. Expansion of local education opportunities, now allowing students and women in Dharur Mandal to pursue studies from Class 10 up to Degree level locally—something that was once a distant dream. The MLA promised to continue working hand-in-hand with the government to resolve all infrastructure and basic facility issues in villages. Event Participation The program witnessed the participation of: Gadwal Market Yard Chairman Nalla Hanumanthu, Local public representatives, Numerous beneficiaries, General public and district officials. The event served as a strong reflection of the government's commitment to rural development, housing for the underprivileged, and social welfare through transparent and inclusive governance.
