Naidu asserts Andhra will not lose its rights over Krishna river water

Andhra Pradesh Chief Minister N Chandrababu Naidu has categorically said that there is no question of the state losing its rights on Krishna river water.

During a review meeting at the secretariat, the chief minister instructed officials to be assertive and strong in arguments before the tribunal adjudicating the river water share to protect the state’s



rights.

“Naidu made it clear that there is no question of losing AP’s (Andhra Pradesh) rights on Krishna river water,” said an official press release issued late on Wednesday. 

According to the CM, 512 TMC water was apportioned to Andhra Pradesh and 299 TMC to Telangana, following the bifurcation of the united Andhra Pradesh State.
