Poor water management aggravated drought situation in Andhra Pradesh, says YSRCP leader Sailajanath
YSRCP legislator Sailajanath blamed inadequate water management for intensifying the drought in Andhra Pradesh, arguing that the crisis cannot be solely linked to the El Niño phenomenon. He said the state government was aware of the looming threat as early as February but failed to implement preventive measures, worsening water scarcity for farmers in the state.
