A main Mission Bhagiratha Manjeera drinking water pipeline burst in Hathnoora on October 19. This incident led to the wastage of drinking water intended for villages.
The Mission Bhagiratha scheme was launched by the first Chief Minister of Telangana, KCR, with the aim of providing drinking water to every household. The scheme supplies drinking water to villages across the state.
Residents allege that the Congress government has shown negligence in the maintenance of Mission Bhagiratha pipelines since coming to power. Similar incidents are frequently reported across the state.
The repeated bursts in pipelines lead to wastage of drinking water. People are expressing anger over what they perceive as a lack of supervision from officials and contractors.
