KADAPA: A meeting of Kadapa district YSR Congress leaders at Madhavi Convention Hall in Kadapa city on Tuesday asserted that the state government is committed to the development of Rayalaseema region. The meeting was presided over by government advisor Sajjala Ramakrishna Reddy.
Leaders at the meeting said water in Gandikota reservoir will be stored to its full capacity this year as well. In addition, all reservoirs in Kadapa district will be filled with Krishna river water.
