TDP MP Kesineni Chinni Urges Centre to allocate funds Polavaram Project

In a recent address in the Lok Sabha, MP Kesineni Chinni urged the Central Government to allocate significant funds for the expedited completion of the Polavaram project in Andhra Pradesh. Speaking under Rule 377 on Monday, he emphasized the necessity of adequate financial support to ensure the timely construction of the project.
