Mr. K. Chandrashekar Rao, the Chief Minister of Telangana, fulfilled his promise made during the Khammam Public Meeting, held on the 18th of January.
Delivering the promise he made to the people of Khammam within 24 hours, Mr. K. Chandrashekar Rao sanctioned Rs. 180 crores for the construction of a bridge across the Munneru stream in Khammam city. It is to be noted, Mr. Puvvada Ajay Kumar, the Transport Minister of Telangana, requested the Bharat Rashtra Samithi (BRS) Government to approve the construction of the bridge near Munneru stream and release funds for the same.
Reacting to the request, on the 18th of January public meeting, Mr. K. Chandrashekar Rao promised to approve funds for the bridge. In regard to this, the State Government issued an order giving administrative approval for Rs.180 crore to build a high level bridge across the stream. The minister had taken the matter to the notice of the Chief Minister last August as part of Khammam development. He proposed to construct a new cable-stayed bridge across the stream as an alternative to the existing British-era bridge on which accidents and traffic jams were taking place frequently and it has become dangerous to travel on the bridge during the rainy season.
The new cable-stayed bridge would be 420 meters in length of which 300 meters would be cable-stayed and 120 meters would be on RCC type. After its construction, the public transport and traffic flow would become smooth.
In addition, Member of Parliament (MP) Nama Nageshwar Rao and senior BRS leader Gundala Krishna also thanked the Chief Minister for sanctioning funds for the bridge.
