The report comes in the wake of a major incident in October 2023, when <strong>six piers in Block 7 of the barrage sank<\/strong>, rendering the structure non-functional.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Responding to a request from the Telangana government on <strong>February 13, 2024<\/strong>, the NDSA constituted a high-level <strong>expert committee<\/strong> on <strong>March 2, 2024<\/strong>, under the <strong>Dam Safety Act, 2021<\/strong>. The panel was led by <strong>J. Chandrashekhar Iyer<\/strong>, former Chairman of the Central Water Commission (CWC), and included top engineers and scientists from CWC, NDSA, CSMRS, CWPRS, and <strong>IIT Delhi<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The committee conducted a comprehensive field inspection of the <strong>Medigadda, Annaram, and Sundilla barrages<\/strong> in March 2024. It held 36 internal meetings and examined vast technical documentation, including design drawings, construction records, and maintenance logs. The findings paint a grim picture of poor planning, substandard construction, and oversight failures.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"640\" height=\"384\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/vglobenews.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/1088540-photo-2024-01-22-13-24-31587085844465143324.jpg?resize=640%2C384&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-23258\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/vglobenews.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/1088540-photo-2024-01-22-13-24-31587085844465143324.jpg?w=900&amp;ssl=1 900w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/vglobenews.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/1088540-photo-2024-01-22-13-24-31587085844465143324.jpg?resize=300%2C180&amp;ssl=1 300w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/vglobenews.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/1088540-photo-2024-01-22-13-24-31587085844465143324.jpg?resize=768%2C461&amp;ssl=1 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Key Findings of the Report:<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Medigadda Collapse Causes:<\/strong><br \/>The collapse of Block 7 was attributed to <strong>inadequate sand-bearing capacity in the foundation<\/strong>, <strong>failure of secant piles<\/strong>, and water flows that far exceeded the <strong>original design parameters<\/strong>. These engineering flaws were exacerbated by poor quality control during construction.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Issues Across All Three Barrages:<\/strong><br \/>Similar concerns were observed in the <strong>Annaram and Sundilla barrages<\/strong>, where voids formed due to water storage pressures. The NDSA recommended that <strong>none of these barrages be used for water storage<\/strong>, but only for <strong>flow regulation<\/strong>, until further structural evaluation and reinforcement are completed.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Repair Infeasibility &amp; Reconstruction:<\/strong><br \/>The committee declared that repairing Block 7 was not technically viable. It recommended <strong>complete demolition and reconstruction<\/strong>, alongside <strong>redesigning downstream elements<\/strong> such as the stilling basin to ensure future stability.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Pre-Monsoon Precaution Urged:<\/strong><br \/>The panel advised that <strong>immediate safety measures<\/strong> be taken <strong>before the 2024 monsoon<\/strong> to enable safe flood discharge. However, the report noted that these interim steps <strong>have not yet been implemented<\/strong>, raising fears of further deterioration.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"300\" height=\"185\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/vglobenews.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/untitled-2_94000122540410271695.jpg?resize=300%2C185&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-23257\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/vglobenews.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/untitled-2_94000122540410271695.jpg?resize=300%2C185&amp;ssl=1 300w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/vglobenews.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/04\/untitled-2_94000122540410271695.jpg?w=756&amp;ssl=1 756w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Unheeded Warnings &amp; Government Response<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>The report reveals that <strong>early signs of structural weaknesses were observed as far back as 2019<\/strong>, but were <strong>not addressed<\/strong>. The inclusion of the barrages under the <strong>Dam Safety Act<\/strong> came only in <strong>July 2023<\/strong>, by which time significant damage had already occurred.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Telangana government has since directed construction giant <strong>Larsen &amp; Toubro (L&amp;T)<\/strong>\u2014the original contractor\u2014to carry out <strong>repairs and pending works<\/strong> at a cost of <strong>Rs 600 crore<\/strong>. Critics argue, however, that this is too little, too late.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Adding to the controversy, the NDSA flagged unauthorized grouting work undertaken <strong>without its approval<\/strong>, and the <strong>failure to perform mandatory geotechnical testing<\/strong> prior to construction. These oversights have triggered demands for accountability.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Political Fallout and Accusations<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>BRS leader K. Kavitha<\/strong> lashed out at both the <strong>Congress-led state government<\/strong> and the <strong>BJP-led Centre<\/strong>, accusing them of using the issue for political gain while farmers suffer the consequences. \u201cThe delay in addressing the structural problems is costing livelihoods,\u201d she said, demanding that <strong>transparent repair protocols and punitive action against erring officials and contractors<\/strong> be ensured.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Farmers and Experts Raise Alarm<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Farmers dependent on the Kaleshwaram project fear water shortages during the upcoming kharif season if repairs are delayed further. Experts warn that <strong>any failure during heavy floods could lead to catastrophic consequences<\/strong>, including downstream flooding and loss of irrigation supply to vast stretches of farmland.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Water resource analysts also criticized the <strong>fast-track construction<\/strong> of the Kaleshwaram project under the previous regime, alleging that <strong>technical due diligence was sacrificed for speed and optics<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<hr class=\"wp-block-separator has-alpha-channel-opacity\"\/>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>NDSA&#8217;s Final Word: Act Now<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>The NDSA has called for a <strong>thorough review of the report<\/strong> by both state and central agencies, along with <strong>urgent and coordinated action<\/strong>. It emphasized that <strong>any further delay<\/strong> in repairs or safety measures would pose <strong>grave risks<\/strong> to people, property, and agricultural systems.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The ball now lies firmly in the court of the Telangana government, which must act swiftly to <strong>restore public confidence<\/strong> in the project and <strong>ensure long-term structural
