Even as the State government is finding it difficult to get approval from neighbouring States for the Indira Sagar (Polavaram) project on Godavari river, the Centre has suddenly revived the Inchampally major irrigation project which has more inter-State disputes. The Inchampally project, which has been pending since 1960s, was not considered under the "Jalayag nam' of the Congress government. Chief Minister Y.S. Rajasekhar Reddy expressed his helplessness as it would create fresh disputes with Maharashtra and Chattisgarh. The project with a full-reservoir level of 112.77 metres would submerge 92,555 hectares of land, including 21,734 hectares of reserved forests in Maharashtra and Chattisgarh.
