Hyderabad, Aug.30 (Hydnow): Former minister and Congress leader Nagam Janardhan Reddy today demanded that the Chief Minister KCR recommend CBI inquiry into the irregularities committed in the construction of Palamuru Rangareddy Lift irrigation project in undivided Mahbubnagar district and take action against corrupt officials.

Nagam wrote a letter to the CM on the issue a day after KCR’s visit to the project. He listed many irregularities committed in the evaluation of the technical bids of the project by the officials of the State government. He also alleged that the works of the project were awarded to ineligible agencies leading to the slow pace of the works. He said he was pained that the CM had not visited the pump houses of the project.
