Tank irrigation has decreased considerably over the years in Telangana and it has also reduced the agricultural output. The reasons may be attributed to poor monsoons, rampant exploitation of groundwater resources, lack of effective water management practices, lack of community help to maintain tanks.
“Mission Kakatiya” is TRS ( Telangana Rashtra Samithi ) government sponsored programme to revive these defunct chain of tanks.

Shankari (1991) points out that poor management is primarily responsible for the decline of tanks, as evident in the non-participation of farmers in cleaning channels, encroachment of the tank bed, inadequate repairs, weed infestation, and siltation (Shankari, 1991).
