It also wanted a re-survey of poorer sections under the `Velugu' programme.
PVC plant
In its representation, the Committee for Protection of Environment, has urged the Chief Minister, to scrap the Memorandum of Understanding (MOU), pertaining to the proposed setting up of a PVC plant at Krishnapatnam of Muttukur mandal. The Left parties impressed upon him the need for early completion of pending irrigation projects in the district, keeping in view the welfare of farmers.

Telugu Ganga works
