The Supreme Court has dismissed Telangana's petition challenging the Polavaram project, advising the state to file a fresh lawsuit under Article 131 of the Constitution. Telangana had contested fund allocation and environmental clearances for the project, which also involves Maharashtra and Karnataka as stakeholders. The court found the original writ petition not maintainable, prompting Telangana's government to prepare a new legal action concerning the project's financial assistance and environmental approvals.
