Direct accusation on Dotasara, question on role of opposition

For this project, the state government has approved about Rs 12.5 crore for DPR (Detail Project Report) under the budget announcement. The minister said that the total cost of the project is estimated to be around Rs 10,000 crore.
He said that the DPR is almost complete and it is being sent to the Central Water Commission (CWC) for approval. As soon as the approval is received, work on this project will be started expeditiously.
