In addition to the KLIS project, the State Government is set to complete 35 TMC  water capacity, Sitarama project at Dummugudem and 7.5 TMC Sammakka Sagar. 

KCR said, “Telangana which was treated like an orphan and described by poets as a ‘State of sorrow that has rivers passing through it but no water was available for the parched lands,’ has now transformed into a Golden Telangana. I am proud as I am the only leader in this world to be alive to see the State I freed from shackles, free and prospering now.”

To complete the farming work and benefit the farmers of Telangana, the TRS ensures, round the clock electricity supply, quality and free power to farmers, drinking water through Mission Bhagiratha.
