Meer Alam Tank Development: Telangana Chief Minister Revanth Reddy made a surprise visit to Meer Alam Tank on Thursday morning to review the ongoing development works around the water body.
During the inspection, the Chief Minister directed officials to complete the projects within the stipulated timeframe. He also stressed the need to prevent sewage from entering the tank and maintain the water body properly.
The state government is constructing a suspension bridge over Meer Alam Tank through the Musi River Front Development Corporation. Revanth Reddy reviewed the progress of the project from a crane and sought details from officials.
He also suggested expanding the nala connecting Meer Alam Tank to the Musi River so that floodwater can flow into the river more efficiently. The move is aimed at improving drainage and reducing the risk of waterlogging during heavy rains.
The Chief Minister asked officials to prepare suitable designs for introducing water sports at the tank. He also proposed developing the existing island in the middle of the water body as an attraction for visitors.
Revanth Reddy said the area should be developed in a way that encourages tourism and gives visitors more recreational options. Officials were instructed to incorporate these suggestions while taking forward the ongoing development works.
