Kothagudem: In order to address shortage of drinking water supply to the residents in Kothagudem municipality and surrounding areas, a new drinking water supply scheme has been proposed.
It might be noted that at present water is being supplied from Kinnerasani reservoir in Paloncha mandal to the town. But the water supply often gets affected due to frequent repairs to pipelines. To find a permanent solution to the problem the new water supply system is proposed with Rs.124.48 crore. According to Kothagudem MLA K Sambasiva Rao, 150 km long new pipelines would be laid from Kinnerasani to Kothagudem as part of the new water supply system in the municipality and other areas.
