She was quoted by local media as saying that she had to resort to protest to draw the attention of the entire nation and the Parliamentarians towards the biggest fiasco of Telangana.
“Let the entire country realise the magnitude of the scam and our tireless fight in the last two years. The project cost was escalated from Rs 38,500 crore to Rs 1.20 lakh crore but on Sunday, the BRS minister claimed only 1.5 lakh acres of land has been irrigated. This shows that Kaleshwaram is the biggest flop show but filled the pockets of one contractor and one family,” Sharmila told reporters.
