Tillari canal repairs postponed to March, water supply to be streamlined, says WRD minister

The state Water Resources Department (WRD) announced that the scheduled repair work on the Tillari canal has been deferred to March. The decision, communicated by the WRD minister, aims to avoid disruption during the peak irrigation season. In the interim, the department has instructed authorities to streamline water distribution to ensure that agricultural users receive uninterrupted supply. Officials will monitor canal flow closely and adjust allocations as needed until the repairs commence. The move reflects the government's focus on balancing infrastructure maintenance with the immediate water needs of farmers in the region.
