The state government has launched first of its kind Mission Bhagiratha to quench the thirst of rural people. Chief Minister K Chandrasekhar Rao gets credit for the water scheme for villages and it is being followed by other states in our country, he claimed.
He asserted that the government is taking all steps to provide safe driving water to all people in the city and all districts. He appealed that people should carefully use waters and avoid wastage.
