Similarly, the construction of residential quarters for all irrigation officers and staff must be completed by the end of April, the Chief Minister told officials at a review meeting in Karimnagar after his visit to the Kaleshwaram Lift Irrigation Scheme.

After having darshan at



the Kaleshwara Muktheswara Swami temple in Kaleshwaram, Chandrashekhar Rao heli-hopped to the Lakshmi Barrage at Ambatpally village. The barrage is brimming with 14 TMC (out of 16.17 TMC capacity) of Godavari water. He had an aerial view of the water spread from Medigadda. The Chief Minister was then taken to the Medigadda barrage by Pragathi Ratham bus.
