Himachal chief minister Virbhadra Singh on Friday said said he would personally take up the matter with the Prime Minister of India and Union Minister for Water Resources for early release of due funds for the remaining work on channelization of Swan river and its tributaries in Una district.
He said though Union Ministry had already earmarked the budget for this project, but the efforts would be made to get it released at the earliest so that the work on this ambitious project was completed well in time.
His assertion came when he was presiding over the concluding session of meeting with the MlA’s of Chamba, Hamirpur and Una districts for finalization of priorities for the next budget of the State Government.
