Amaravati, Feb 25 (NationPress) The Chief Minister of Andhra Pradesh, N. Chandrababu Naidu, expressed on Tuesday that the coalition government is dedicated to delivering on all the commitments outlined in the election manifesto, regardless of the constraints faced.
During a session in the state Assembly, he emphasized that the TDP-led NDA government is resolute in its promise to the citizens made prior to the elections.
In response to the discussions surrounding the Motion of Thanks to the Governor's address, the Chief Minister unveiled the timeline for the rollout of the Super-Six schemes.
"We will commit ourselves to working 365 days a year, 24 hours a day to ensure the promises made to the populace are fulfilled," asserted Chandrababu Naidu.
He noted that the administration has already acted on promises such as increasing pensions from Rs 3,000 to Rs 4,000 and providing financial help to the differently-abled.
Reiterating the commitment to generating 20 lakh jobs, the Chief Minister mentioned that MoUs have been signed with several companies aimed at creating employment opportunities for 6.50 lakh youths. He confirmed that vacancies arising in government sectors will be filled and Rs 3,000 will be given as unemployment assistance to jobless youth.
Furthermore, he announced that the Talliki Vandanam scheme would be initiated in May and that farmers will receive Rs 20,000 through the Anna Data scheme, inclusive of Central support, distributed in three installments.
All teacher vacancies are set to be filled through DSC in the forthcoming academic year, he declared on the floor of the House.
Chandrababu Naidu described Prime Minister Narendra Modi as a success model, contrasting with the former Delhi Chief Minister Kejriwal, whom he labeled a failure, explaining that development, wealth generation, welfare, and achievements characterize a successful model.
The Chief Minister asserted that the alliance partners entered the elections not for selfish motives but with the aim of reconstructing the state, believing that this could only be accomplished through a double-engine government. He emphasized the government’s direction towards the Swarnandhra Vision-2047 and commended the Central assistance for the state's development.
He acknowledged the contributions of Deputy Chief Minister Pawan Kalyan and expressed gratitude to Prime Minister Narendra Modi for supporting the state's progress.
The Chief Minister pointed out the challenges the state is currently facing due to the previous government's inefficient rule.
Chandrababu Naidu criticized the YSR Congress Party (YSRCP) for unjustly demanding opposition status, stating, "It’s not the ruling government that designates opposition; that decision lies with the people," he asserted.
Reflecting on the past five years, he lamented the unpleasant proceedings in the House. "In my 40 years of political experience, this is the first time I’ve witnessed a party's MLAs claiming they will only attend the House if granted opposition status," he remarked.
The Chief Minister expressed that sustainable development can only be achieved with a robust government, stating, "Wealth can only be generated through development, which in turn increases government revenues," reaffirming his commitment to distribute wealth to the less fortunate.
He stated that the state is progressing with the goal of attaining a 15 percent growth rate and aims to elevate the per capita income to $42,000 by 2047.
