The Polavaram Multipurpose Project in Andhra Pradesh was recognized as a national irrigation project. Leaders are scheduled to visit the site to review the progress of the works. During a press conference, a BJP spokesperson alleged that successive governments delayed the project, leading to substantial cost escalation. The spokesperson credited the central government with providing national status, financial support, and statutory clearances for the project.
