Telangana Minister T. Harish Rao defended former Chief Minister K. Chandrasekhar Rao against accusations regarding Krishna water allocations. Rao stated that KCR consistently sought a larger share for Telangana, writing 28 letters and pursuing legal avenues, including the Supreme Court, for redistribution. He criticized the current Chief Minister's understanding of water tribunals and alleged that forming committees could facilitate Andhra Pradesh's water diversion. Rao also highlighted perceived contradictions in the current government's water management strategies.
