TS Govt urged to address water crisis in villages

Patancheru: Former local ZPTC Member Srikanth Goud on Wednesday called upon the State government to take steps for meeting water shortage in villages.

Speaking after donating funds to Muttangi Sarpanch Upender for a water tanker, he criticised the government for not taking any action to meet water shortage although half of the monsoon season was over.

He pointed out that the supply problem could be gauged from the fact that villages were getting water once in five to six days, while seeking urgent government steps to tide over the situation.

Among those present were Upa-sarpanch Linga Reddy, MPP Swapna, ward member Naveen, local leaders Srinivas Yadav, Rajesh, Ashok Mudiraj, Narayana, Yadayya and Shakeel.
