• CM Revanth Reddy affirmed in the Assembly that the Musi river will be purified, detailing plans to address severe pollution from urban sewage and pharma companies.
• The 'Gandhi Sarovar' project (21 km, V-shaped) is underway, with strict action against farmhouses diverting drainage into Himayat Sagar and Gandipet.
• Nizam-era structures were encroached by BRS, leading to Musi pollution, causing health issues like disabilities in Nalgonda district.
• Godavari waters (20 TMC) will be diverted to Gandipet within two years to fill Musi and Eesa rivers, with ADB Bank providing a loan for the 'Gandipet to Gaurelli' project.
