Water crisis acute in Nizamabad, Kamareddy districts.
People living in the remote corners of the villages are finding it extremely difficult to get water for drinking and irrigation purposes and they are forced to trek more than 1 km to fetch a pail of water.
Although the State government has chalked out an action plan to tide over the water scarcity in the two districts at an estimated cost of Rs 1 crore, it rained only on paper and the government has not released even a single pie for the purpose.
Even the ponds are drying up.
The severity is even more in the villages of Gandhari mandal.
