Written from the 1 report below. Nothing here is unsourced.
- The Telangana government has said it will not allow the three damaged Kaleshwaram project barrages — Medigadda, Annaram and Sundilla — to operate until experts certify them safe.
- Tests on their structural, technical, geological and geophysical aspects, conducted by institutions including CWPRS and NGRI, are nearly complete, and findings have been sent to IIT Bombay and its technical partners to prepare rehabilitation designs.
- The designs are expected in the coming months, with a possible diaphragm wall across the barrages part of the strategy, and a Union Government Technical Oversight Committee will scrutinise proposals before repairs begin.
- The government has also engaged engineers with Indian Army backgrounds, led by Colonel Parikshit Mehra, to coordinate testing and planning with transparency.
What to watch next
- Release of the detailed rehabilitation designs by IIT Bombay and its technical partners in the coming months
- Scrutiny and clearance of rehabilitation proposals by the Union Government's Technical Oversight Committee and NDSA recommendations
- Whether diaphragm wall construction is confirmed as part of the repair strategy
