Naidu claiming undue credit for Polavaram canal works, says APCC chief Sharmila
APCC president Sharmila has accused Andhra Pradesh Chief Minister Y.S. Jagan Naidu of claiming credit for the Polavaram canal project that she says was largely finished under former chief minister Y.S. Rajasekhara Reddy. She asserts that nearly nine‑tenths of the canal work was completed during Reddy’s administration, and that Naidu’s statements misrepresent the timeline of the scheme in recent remarks.
