Karimnagar: Finance and Civil Supplies Minister Eatala Rajender informed that agriculture sector would get nine hours uninterrupted power supply from March 16, next year. After three years, power would be supplied round-the-clock, he said. Rajender on Wednesday laid foundation stones for various developmental works in Chandurthi mandal and participated in Grama Jyothi.
Speaking on the occasion, the Minister emphasised the need for the involvement of people in the development of villages. Growth of villages was possible only with the participation of public, he said and the government has launched Grama Jyothi with a sole aim to develop villages. Both sarpanches and MPTCs should play an active role in the growth of villages, he said.
Water supply to agricultural fields will change the living conditions of rural people and the government took up Mission Kakatiya to revive minor irrigation sources. Repair works of 20 per cent of tanks were completed. The government was committed to construct drainages, lay CC roads, develop dumping yard and provide safe drinking water in rural areas.
Pensions would be provided to widows and Jogini women, he assured. Rajender asked the people to plant saplings and keep their surrounds clean to avoid diseases. Vemulawada MLA Ch Ramesh said that the prospects of Chandurthi mandal would be changed once Yellampalli irrigation project was completed.
