Kurnol: The Daddanala Tank, a key water source for Padamatipalle and Banaganapalle mandals in Andhra Pradesh, was restarted after repairs were done on four broken motors. This tank is considered important for farming as it refills borewells. The fund for the repairs came from B.C. Janardhan Reddy, who gave Rs 25.75 lakh for this work.
The reopening of the Daddanala Tank took place on Wednesday after finishing repair work successfully. The occasion met the minister’s promise to people in Banaganapalle area.
The Fixes included repairing four malfunctioning motors tied into irrigation setup supplying water to Daddanala Tank itself; repair costs covered by B.C.Janardhan Reddy's contribution worth Rs 25 lakhs—ensuring that now the tank operates properly guaranteeing reliable farm watering throughout the region once more!
B.C. Janardhan Reddy played a big role in repairing and reopening Daddanala Tank as Minister of Roads and Buildings for Andhra Pradesh. He personally funded this project while promising locals that more irrigation projects will continue under Chief Minister N. Chandrababu Naidu's guidance.
Daddanala Tank serves as a vital resource for residents in both Padamatipalle and Banaganapalle mandals by pumping necessary water into agriculture systems which helps fill borewells especially during dry periods like droughts. Repairs were needed since broken motors had reduced its effectiveness before fixing them allowed operations to restart benefiting community resources linked with farming.
