Officers Neglect Repairing Drains in Guntur District : పంట కాలువల అధ్వాన దుస్థితికి చేరుకోవడంతో రైతులు ఆందోళన చెందుతున్నారు. కాలువల్లో తూటుకాడ, గుర్రపు డెక్క దట్టంగా పేరుకుపోవడంతో నీటి సరఫరాకు ఆటంకం కలుగుతుంది. దీంతో ఆయకట్టు చివరిలో ఉన్న భూములకు నీరందని పరిస్థితి ఏర్పడింది. కాలువ మరమ్మతులకు ప్రభుత్వం నిధులు ఇచ్చినా అధికారులు పనులు చేపట్టకుండా జాప్యం చేస్తున్నారని రైతులు వాపోతున్నారు.

00:00In the district of Bapatla, even if the Kothami government pays for the repair work of Sagunatti Kaluvala, the authorities do not start the work.
00:09The Kaluvala situation in Krishnadelta has changed drastically since the government of Vaikappa did not pay for the repair work.
00:14In heavy rains, when the fields were submerged, there was no proper drain, and when the flood went, the fields were submerged and lost.
00:20The authorities do not sleep peacefully even though they know that the repair work of Kaluvala is the solution.
00:26In the district of Vemuru, 18 lakhs were allocated to do 19 works.
00:31The tenders for 12 works have not yet opened.
00:33In Varahapuram channel, which supplies water to 16,000 acres, there is no water supply to the last dam.
00:41In the district of Tungabhadra side channel, the dams are very weak.
00:45In heavy rains, the dams are closed and guns seem to fall.
00:48The dams in Kollur have been severely damaged and the gates of the boats have collapsed.
00:53There is no proper water supply to the upstream fields.
00:55The downstream fields are collapsing.
00:57One of the two gates has completely collapsed.
01:00In the second gate, large ditches have been built in the downstream part up to half.
01:04The water does not go down on the heavy ditches on the gate.
01:08They have increased the dams as a barrier.
01:10The water does not go down without giving any result to these dams.
01:15In the last five years, the government has never worked in these drains or in these fields.
01:25If there is money, the government will call for tenders.
01:28But the MLAs do not work.
01:30The authorities and the contractors do not share the money.
01:34In the last five years, the government has never done anything.
01:39After the government came in power, the government decided to kill the many ditches and dams.
01:44It decided to provide water to the farmers without any obstruction.
01:48The government called for tenders for all these things.
01:51If there is a drought, the clothes will come off and the fields will be destroyed.
01:54The water should not go down.
01:56If there is a drought, the farmers will do it.
02:01If there was water in the past, we would have had to sustain this situation.
02:04Due to heavy rains, many farmers have lost their livelihoods.
02:10We have been doing this work for the past 2-3 years.
02:16We are hoping that this work will be completed by the end of July.
02:20In Parchur, Neeraj Kovargan, for 8 crops, 43,15,000 rupees,
02:2511,00,000 rupees were allocated for a work in Chirala Paridhu.
02:28Even after the tenders were completed, the work did not start.
02:30In Kommamuru, which is the main area of Krishna Delta, no repairs were done.
02:35Farmers are saying that they have to complete the work by the end of July,
02:38or else the crops will be submerged.
02:42In Bapatla, Neeraj Kovargan, for 12 crops, 75,89,000 rupees were allocated.
02:47After the repairs were done in PT channel,
02:50in Bapatla, Karalapalem mandalas,
02:528,000 acres of water was not available for the last crop.
02:55In Narasayapalem channel, Murukundapadu channel,
02:58Gurrappu Dekka was severely damaged.
03:00If the crops are not repaired, 12,000 acres of water will not be available.
03:04In Aramunda channel, no repairs were done.
03:07In Rehpalli, Neeraj Kovargan, for 9 crops, 47,67,000 rupees were allocated.
03:12Tenders for 4 houses were not opened yet.
03:15In Nizampatnam channel, the locks and shutters were damaged.
03:19In Rehpalli, Nagaram, Chirukupalli, no repairs were done.
03:24No water was available for the last crop.
03:26The farmers are saddened by the loss of rain water.
03:32The crops are not being repaired.
03:35We have already planted the crops.
03:37We have to plant them again.
03:39The drainage is not working.
03:41We have to get the drainage from Chirukupalli to Murukundapadu.
03:45There is no water supply.
03:47We are waiting for the rains to stop.
03:49We are waiting for the rains to stop.
03:51It is very difficult.
03:53There is no water in the paddy fields.
03:57We have to cover it with sand and then plant the crops.
04:04We have planted the paddy fields using the same method.
04:07Now we have to use the same method to plant the crops.
04:12We have not been able to plant the crops for the past five years.
04:15We have not been able to plant the crops.
04:17The government has put us in a difficult position.
04:20If we get water in the morning, the farmers will be able to survive.
04:26All the gates that come to our channel are closed.
04:29It would be very good if we could call the repairmen, tenders, officials and do something about it.
04:36Even though tenders were called in Kollur, officials said that some jobs did not get a job.
04:41Due to technical problems, some of the officials who said that the tenders were not opened,
04:45we will soon decide whether to call the tenders or work on it.
04:51They said that they will immediately start the repair work in Kollur.
