Naidu reviews drone healthcare push in Amaravati

Andhra Pradesh Chief Minister N. Chandrababu Naidu personally inspected a drone project in Amaravati on 29 August 2026, aimed at delivering essential medicines and medical equipment to remote agency areas of the state.

The drone initiative targets remote agency areas in Andhra Pradesh that lack reliable road access, using unmanned aerial vehicles to transport medicines and emergency medical supplies where ground delivery is difficult.

The project is designed to fly essential medicines and emergency medical equipment into tribal and agency areas of Andhra Pradesh where conventional supply chains are reportedly insufficient for timely emergency care.

Chief Minister N. Chandrababu Naidu has positioned the drone delivery programme as part of a broader technology-led governance push in Andhra Pradesh, with the 29 August 2026 inspection conducted at the state capital Amaravati.
