The Andhra Pradesh (Krishna, Godavari and Pennar Delta Area) Drainage Cess (Amendment) Act, 1991 modifies the framework for levying drainage taxes on agricultural land in specified river delta regions of the state. It updates the drainage cess rates payable by landowners in the Krishna, Godavari, and Pennar delta zones, setting revised annual fees such as forty rupees per acre for the Sangam and Nellore deltas. By inserting new legal provisions and replacing the existing fee schedule, the law ensures structured funding for maintaining public drainage networks, helping farmers protect crops from flooding.
