Newly appointed Andhra Pradesh Congress Committee president Y S Sharmila today lashed out at the YSRCP government led by Y S Jagan Mohan Reddy claiming that it was responsible for the washing away of the Gundlakamma project due to its criminal negligence.
Sharmila, accompanied by Congress leaders, was speaking after inspecting the project built in Maddipadu of Prakasam district.
She said that the project constructed by the late Y S Rajasekhar Reddy had been left to the winds, and that the State government had deliberately failed to release funds for the maintenance of the project.
She also alleged that the State Irrigation Minister knew only Sankranthi dances, and had shirked off all responsibility for the maintenance of irrigation projects.
Former minister Raghuveera Reddy and others were present.
