BRS Nagarkurnool MP candidate RS Praveen Kumar raised alarm over the water crisis gripping Malleswaram village in Pentlavelli mandal in Nagarkurnool district. He said Mission Bhagiratha water supply halted for past two days, forcing locals into dire straits.

Sharing the plight of villagers on X on Wednesday, Praveen Kumar said the officials supplied two tankers of water using the gram panchayat’s tanker which was insufficient to meet the village’s needs. As a result, there was a streetfight between the women at the tanker. He said the women cursed the Congress regime which failed to supply even drinking water.

During the tenure of former Chief Minister K Chandrashekhar Rao, there were no problems for irrigation and drinking water
