Speaking for himself, Eatala said that he was the finance minister and it was the irrigation minister who was involved in processing the information given by the commission appointed to give a report on Kaleshwaram.
Eatala was repeating time and again that the project was the brainchild of KCR. He told the scribes present that KCR himself said thousands of times that he spent a lot of time to visualize and create Kaleshwaram project.

The appointed committee had said not to build the project at Tummadihatti. So, the next option was Kaleshwaram, Eatala shared.
The decision on that was taken by KCR, said Eatala. KCR was the boss. He led the Cabinet, said Eatala.

In his conversation, Eatala appeared to implicate that KCR and the irrigation minister of the time must be held responsible for any and all irregularities. He added that the initial cost of Kaleshwaram was Rs 63 crore, then it rose to Rs 83 crore. I don’t know the final cost of the project, said the BJP leader.
The finance ministry had nothing to do with the cost and expenditure of the project, said Eatala.
Revanth Reddy government must share all reports regarding Kaleshwaram, demanded Eatala.
It is known that Eatala had an acrimonious exit from BRS and later joined the BJP.
