Why it matters
Infrastructure development projects are critical for urban flood mitigation and demonstrate government responsiveness to local environmental challenges.
Stating that the promises made to the public during the last general elections were being fulfilled one by one, Industries and Commerce Minister T.G. Bharath Gupta said that the development works were being set in motion by overcoming financial constraints and mobilising necessary funds.
Mr. Bharath, along with Kurnool Municipal Corporation (KMC) Commissioner Challa Obulesu, laid the foundation stone on Wednesday for the construction of a retaining wall along the Suddavagu stream, near the KC Canal, covering the limits of the city’s 23rd and 24th wards. The Minister inspected the spraying process of the BTI ( Bacillus thuringiensis israelensis ) biological larvicide in the KC Canal and directed the Commissioner to intensify the spraying operations.
