Andhra Pradesh Chief Minister Chandrababu Naidu visited the Polavaram Project on December 16, 2024, to conduct a thorough review of the project's progress. He specifically focused on the construction of the diaphragm wall, a crucial component that will significantly contribute to the structural integrity of the ECRF dam to be built along GAP 1 and 2. This wall is integral to the project's overall development.
In addition to assessing the current status, the Chief Minister also engaged in discussions with MEIL's Director Subbaiah and other team members regarding upcoming works and the next phases of the project. He emphasised the importance of timely completion, as the Polavaram project will pave the way for a broader vision of transforming Andhra Pradesh into an agricultural and economic powerhouse through effective water resource management.
