The Polavaram project works on the river Godavari would be completed by 2014, stated Irrigation Minister Ponnala Laxmaiah.
Chief Minister K Rosaiah reviewed the irrigation project works at the Secretariat on Tuesday in the presence of Laxmaiah. Rosaiah is reported to have directed the officials to complete the much-awaited irrigation project by 2014.
The Chief Minister also directed the officials to complete the tender process by June 30 and commence the construction works, he told newsmen.
However, there is no change in the design of the project, the Minister asserted. Some of the ruling party members were demanding a change in the design to reduce the submergence area.
Praja Rajyam party leader K Chiranjeevi travelled by bus from Antarvedi in East Godavari district on May 5 to expedite the Polavaram project.
