Meeting with Committee on Rehabilitation and Resettlement
Meeting with Committee on Rehabilitation and Resettlement
“The completion of Polavaram is my ultimate life goal”, said Chief Minister Chandrababu Naidu, during a meeting with the Committee on Rehabilitation and Resettlement (R&R).
On Wednesday, he met with committee members Leena Nair and G. Latha Krishna Rao, who visited the Polavaram site in the last two days. They said that they were satisfied with the provisions for rehabilitation and the compensation for migrant villagers.
They visited all three villages and said that the R & R provided by the state government have good houses, and can accommodate all displaced persons.
The Chief Minister said that the reports on land acquisition, compensation and rehabilitation will be submitted to the Centre, along with the possibilities of a Godavari-Penna-Kaveri linking project.
The Centre was supposed to release funds faster, he said. “It is not good to delay the progress of this project, as there are already many obstacles, and forces that are trying to provoke migrant villagers. We need more cooperation from the Centre and we still have not received the promised special package”, he added.
“I spend 4 hours every week concentrating on the development of this project. I did not face these many obstacles when I developed an entire city (Cyberabad)”, he said.
He said that the government prioritises water management, because the success of the agriculture sector determines almost everything else in the state.
“The bifurcation of the state was an unjust and a sudden move. Without a capital city, our state was formed. Only with the Centre’s full support, can there be progress in the state”, said the Chief Minister at the meeting held in the Assembly.
