Andhra Pradesh Chief Minister Y.S. Jagan Mohan Reddy met with Union Home Minister Amit Shah to request the resolution of long-pending issues since the bifurcation of the state. He asked for the immediate release of a grant of Rs 10,000 crore for the Polavaram project and Rs 2,020 crore to fill scourge pits at the main dam site. CM YS Jagan also sought reimbursement of Rs 2,601 crore spent on the Polavaram project and requested the Centre to release the pending amount of Rs 36,625 under resource gap funding for the fiscal 2014-15. Reddy also urged Shah to raise the credit limit of Rs 17,923 crore, which was cut down from Rs 42,472 crore post the pandemic.
