Answer:
Rivers of Andhra Pradesh and Telangana
This report was commissioned for India Rivers Week 2016. Its a short description of a detailed report which can be seen here Telangana and Andhra Pradesh Rivers Profile
This is about two states, Andhra Pradesh and Telangana (the latter being 29th Indian state formed in 2013 after a protracted struggle). Since the discussion is on the state of rivers, it may be noted that these are two states whose historical trajectory is intrinsically linked to the history of, mainly, two major rivers—Krishna and Godavari, although the two states have many other rivers.
In fact, Telangana, was created after many years of struggle and out of one basic river-water discourse: over the utilisation of Godavari river and unequal development of the Godavari delta region vis-à-vis Telangana on account of the numerous irrigation projects and hydro-power projects commissioned and implemented in the coastal Andhra region.
In the wake of the recent contention between Telangana and Andhra Pradesh and the resolution over utilisation of the other river, Krishna, the state of rivers in Andhra Pradesh cannot be seen without addressing the same in Telangana, which have a historical trajectory that necessitates an understanding of the two states together while discussing rivers.
To some extent, this report looks at the politics over rivers and the contemporary development paradigm, involving construction of hydro-electric projects and several subsidiary projects using rivers, as one of the major threats to the life of rivers. These projects also add to pollution, displacement, protracted battles, sometimes involving violence, such as the one we are witnessing over Cauvery river between Karnataka and Tamil Nadu, where even Tribunals seem to have failed.
It is important to note that the current development politics is the most crucial threat to rivers in terms of the nature of development proposed for the country. The present state of development is fixated upon maximum use of river waters and any obstructions imposed on the river’s flow means to take away from its basic principle: flow. This paradigm is irrespective of the political parties that may rule different states and has more to do with an idea of progress and control of natural resources, including rivers.
This report also has elements seen as common threats to rivers, such as pollution, and there are a few facts and figures which give information about the health of rivers from these parameters. But it is also important to look at the disputes over water sharing because they lead to or are preceded by projects which invariably lead to deteriorating health of the river system as a whole, not in terms of one single river, with a singular name, but the entire interconnectedness of several streams, rivulets, tributaries that give the identity to a large river, where each of these components of a river are equally important: their individual health in a particular political boundary of a state is crucial for the health of the larger / major river. And some projects promise to threaten the very flow of a river or divert its natural course, which means they impact at some level on the river system.
Following is a list of rivers in AP and Telangana states, as listed on web sources, such as Wikipedia and the websites of the respective state governments.

Many of these are names may not ring a bell in mainstream debates on river waters, because the focus tends to be on the ‘major’ rivers of a state. A holistic understanding of threat to rivers in the country can perhaps come about if each of such rivers, even the unknown ones, or streams or lakes, are taken up for individual study or if their histories are studied, in connection with the people, places, the nature of development in areas where these are located.
