Vijayawada MP Kesineni Sivanath and Central constituency MLA Bonda Uma laid the foundation stone for an Rs 81.14 crore water treatment plant at Vambay Colony on Friday. The project comes under the AMRUT 2.0 scheme and is intended to address long-standing drinking water shortages in Vambay Colony and Singh Nagar.
Sivanath said residents of Vambay Colony had faced water difficulties for a long time and that the plant would provide a lasting solution. He credited Uma, the Central and State governments, MP funds and other assistance for advancing the project.
Residents need more than a foundation stone and assurances of a lasting solution. The project’s value will be judged by construction progress, treatment capacity and regular supply to Vambay Colony and Singh Nagar. Claims that a ceremony itself ends the water crisis are premature, while dismissing the project as another announcement is equally easy. The first concrete test is whether the plant is completed and supplying safe water within its announced schedule.
