Hanumakonda: Wardhannapet MLA KR Nagaraju has called on government officials to take full responsibility for safeguarding local water bodies, including lakes, ponds, and canals in the Wardhannapet constituency.
During a review meeting held on Monday in Hanumakonda, the MLA met with officials from the Irrigation Department. He stressed the need to prepare ahead of the monsoon season to avoid water shortages for farmers.
