The BRS Students teams will tour basthis and colonies along the River Musi bank from today till April 14. About 50 teams have set out on the tour covering the River Musi bank areas.

Deputy Floor Leader Talasani Srinivas Yadav said the BRS was not against the Musi project. However, the party would not remain silent, if any attempts were made to cause destruction under the pretext of the project, he stressed.

Many people have been residing along the banks of the River Musi for years. Ever since the State government announced the project, they were living in a state of fear and anxiety, he charged.

“The government cannot simply act arbitrarily just because it holds power. It has to convince the people and them into confidence,” Srinivas Yadav said.
