Project Bata : YS Jagan reaches Prakasam Barrage

YSRCP supremo and Leader of Opposition YS Jagan Mohan Reddy on Thursday resumed his Project bata yatra.

He started his second day of the bus yatra aimed at exposing faulty promises of TDP government and to inspect pending irrigation projects in state. YS Jagan reached Prakasam Barrage from state guest house amid large crowd accompanying him. YS Jagan and his team of MLAs and MPs interacted with farmers near the barrage. YS Jagan inspected barrage.
After interacting with farmers, YS Jagan will tour the city and then leave to Prakasam district to inspect Veligonda Project.
YS Jagan on Wednesday began his tour from Rajahmundry , Dowlaiswaram barrage. This is part of the three-day ‘Project Bata’ being undertaken by YS Jagan to expose the TDP Government’s step-motherly treatment of the all-important irrigation sector. On the opening day of the three-day “Projects Bata” after interacting with farmers and officials here on Wednesday, he said: “the way Pattiseema project is taken up in a hurry makes the intention of the State Government very clear and it wants to make Polavaram redundant.” While the project needs Rs 16,000 crores, YSR has sanctioned Rs 4,000 crores and the officials tell me that during the past 11 months only Rs 100 crores was released. This apathy makes it clear that the State wants to push it in cold storage.
