HYDERABAD: Revenue Minister Ponguleti Srinivasa Reddy on Tuesday instructed officials to look into all applications received during the recent Bhu Bharati Revenue Sadassulu and resolve as many land-related issues as possible by August 15, Independence Day. A total of 8.6 lakh applications were received during the Sadassulu, the minister said. Srinivasa Rao, along with fellow Cabinet members Konda Surekha, Ponnam Prabhakar and Adluri Laxman Kumar, and Chief Secretary K Ramakrishna Rao, held a video conference with district collectors on the implementation of Bhu Bharathi Act and construction of Indiramma houses. During the conference, he instructed the officials not to reject any application without reason. 'If any application needs to be rejected, the officials should clearly mention reasons for rejecting it,' he said. Stating that the government has been receiving information that a few officials were troubling farmers while resolving the land issues, he warned them that the government will not hesitate to take strict action against such people. As the issue related to Sada Bainama transactions is pending in the high court, the minister directed the officials to be ready to find solutions even while waiting for the court verdict. The minister, meanwhile, asked the district collectors to send all details of assigned lands and their beneficiaries to the government by July 30. Srinivasa Reddy also directed the collectors to ensure that sand is available to the beneficiaries of Indiramma Housing Scheme. 'While beneficiaries are collecting available sand in some areas for construction of basement of Indiramma houses, police are booking cases against them. This is inappropriate. The collectors and district SPs should take measures to ensure that such incidents are not repeated,' he said. The minister also instructed the officials to conduct a special drive to identify the eligible beneficiaries under the 2BHK housing scheme. Ensure availability of sand, says minister Minister Ponguleti Srinivasa Reddy directed district collectors to ensure that sand is available to the beneficiaries of the housing scheme.

BRS government remained indifferent as Andhra Pradesh used 11 tmcft of Srisailam water: Dy CM Mallu Bhatti
KHAMMAM: Deputy Chief Minister Mallu Bhatti Vikramarka on Monday accused the previous BRS government of remaining indifferent when Andhra Pradesh drew 11 tmcft of water from the upstream Srisailam reservoir, impacting water availability in Telangana. He noted that this led to the Nagarjunasagar Left canal's inability to release even one tmcft of water. Speaking to the media at Palair in Khammam district, alongside Revenue Minister Ponguleti Srinivasa Reddy after commissioning under tunnel works of Nagarjunasagar Left Canal and releasing water for crops, Vikramarka credited past Congress governments for their visionary irrigation projects. These projects, he said, ensured abundant water supply for the state. He accused the BRS of failing to protect the state's water interests despite its financial strength, burdening citizens with poor decisions. The Congress government, he said, was now taking decisive steps to secure Telangana's rightful share of Krishna and Godavari waters and complete pending irrigation projects. Vikramarka said that the BRS's flawed decisions, particularly with regard to the construction of the Rayalaseema Lift Project upstream of Srisailam by AP government, have caused severe water shortage in Khammam district and partial shortage in Nalgonda district. Revenue Minister Ponguleti Srinivasa Reddy announced that water has been released from the Palair reservoir to irrigate Nagarjunasagar ayacut area. He recalled that heavy rains in early September last year caused flooding in Khammam, breaching parts of the Nagarjunasagar main canal and several canals, which were swiftly repaired. At present, water flow was 400 cusecs, with plans to increase this further within five days.
