State to share details on Palar scheme

Special Correspondent

HYDERABAD: The State Government will soon share the details of the proposed multi-purpose scheme on Palar river with the Government of Tamil Nadu.

In a press release by the Chief Minister's Office here on Saturday, the Government sought to emphasise that the quantity of water to be used at the proposed scheme would be 600 million cubic feet only and not 2,000 million cubic feet (tmcft), as apprehended by the Tamil Nadu Government.

The designs of the proposed scheme, which would supply drinking water to the drought-hit Kuppam mandal in Chittoor district and irrigate 4,000 acres in the kharif season, are almost complete.
