Telangana Government today conducted irrigation day to mark the Jayanthi Irrigation expert and writer and former MLC R Vidyasagar Rao.
At a program at Vishweshwaraiah Bhavan, Agriculture Minister S Niranjan Reddy paid rich tributes to the departed leader. He recalled the services rendered by the irrigation expert for the statehood of Telangana.
Vidyasagar Rao was an exponential engineer who worked in Central Water Commission (CWC) at the national level. His services as an engineer are remarkable and the entire nation applauded that, the minister claimed.
He applauded the services of Vidyasagar Rao in close association with TRS Supremo K Chandrasekhar Rao. Both KCR and Vidyasagar Rao and Prof Jayashankar, the ideologue of Telangana statehood, worked hard, he said.

We are following his ideals for the all-around development of the state and welfare of the farmers and the poor, Reddy said. KCR Government has been implementing several ideas of Vidyasagar Rao and completed the Kaleshwaram project and others, he noted.
The government is for the completion of the projects, he said, adding that the agriculture sector sees a golden harvest and offers benefits to the farmers.
