Davangere MP Prabha Mallikarjun has announced that providing permanent solutions to irrigation problems for farmers in the tail-end areas of the Harihar constituency will be a priority. Speaking at the inauguration of a new community hall in Kondajji, Harihar taluk, she highlighted plans to implement the Bairanapada lift irrigation project and schemes to fill several tanks, including the Kondajji tank, with an estimated cost of ₹200 crore.
Beyond irrigation, the MP outlined several development projects for Kondajji. This includes a planned professional theatre Rangayana complex and a theatre museum estimated at ₹10 crore, of which ₹3 crore has been sanctioned and ₹1 crore released. She also promised the development of a three-km road connecting the Kondajji bus stand to local schools, a lake, and the Scouts and Guides institution to improve mobility for residents and students.
During the event, which marked the 44th death anniversary of Kondajji Basappa, Ms. Mallikarjun emphasized the need for political leaders to collaborate across party lines for the constituency's growth. She reflected on her own childhood association with Kondajji and the influence of Scouts and Guides on her leadership skills. The event was attended by Minister K.S. Basavanthappa, MLA B.P. Harish, and former MLC Mohan Kondajji.
