Polepalli: As part of the 'Intintiki Telugu Desam' (TDP Door-to-Door) campaign marking one year of the alliance government's rule under Chief Minister N Chandrababu Naidu, Kalyandurg MLA Amilineni Surendra Babu visited Polepalli village in Brahmasamudram mandal to interact directly with the people and understand their issues.
During the visit, the MLA assured that eligible beneficiaries would soon receive sanctioned pensions and housing under welfare schemes.
'There were no pensions or housing sanctions in the past five years. That situation has changed. Now, every eligible person will get their due,' he affirmed.
He urged people to approach the village secretariats, where officials are readily available to assist with applications. He also responded positively to a local request for the construction of a temple at the BC Colony, promising swift action.
Accompanied by party leaders and local residents, the MLA was welcomed warmly by villagers.
He offered floral tributes to statues of Bhakta Kanakadasa, Maharshi Valmiki and Dr B R Ambedkar before starting his outreach.
Amilineni emphasised that the door-to-door visits were aimed at understanding if welfare schemes like ‚ Talliki Vandhanam' and pensions were reaching households. He noted with satisfaction that in many families with four to five students, the mothers had indeed received benefits.
He also announced that under the 'Annadata Sukhibhava' scheme, financial support for farmers would be credited directly into their bank accounts this month. The MLA concluded by stating that such visits would continue across all villages to ensure effective governance and public engagement.

TDP, BJP leaders submit memoranda to CEO on strengthening the electoral process

TDP leaders Alapati Rajendra Prasad (MLC), former MLC P. Ashok Babu, and A.P. Education & Welfare Infrastructure Development Corporation (APEWIDC) Chairman K. Raja Sekhar submitted a memorandum to Chief Electoral Officer Vivek Yadav at the Secretariat on Thursday (July 24, 2025) on strengthening the electoral process within the legal framework. They made 13 suggestions for ensuring free, fair and transparent elections, which were the cornerstone of a vibrant democracy. Some of the important suggestions were to advise the Booth-Level Agents (BLAs) and Booth-Level Officers (BLOs) to gather information related to deaths from the local bodies at prescribed intervals and update the voters' list accordingly, avoid the 'zero door number' system, and adopt a permanent methodology that sorts out the inconsistencies thereof. They also suggested that a family residing in the same door number / premises should be allotted the same polling station and that better amenities be provided to the Returning Officers by allowing them to take private premises like schools, colleges and halls, and devise a separate mechanism using the present technology for deleting duplicate votes. Further, the TDP leaders also recommended that extra time be given to cast votes to make up for the time lost due to the malfunctioning of the EVMs, the size of the parties' symbols in the VVPAT devices should be increased. They also sought that the involvement of youth in the voting process should be increased by spreading awareness about the importance of getting themselves enrolled as and when they attain 18 years of age. Further, they sought facilities to the elderly, differently-abled persons, and pregnant women to avoid inconvenience, and that a photo revision programme be taken up at fixed intervals. A BJP delegation, comprising K. Dileep and U. Srinivasa Raju, requested the CEO to strengthen the BLO training and monitoring, use GIS tools for rationalising polling stations, fully adopt ERONet across districts, do real-time syncing of data with death and migration records, strictly adhere to the Representation of People Act, implement the SVEEP programme in low registration areas, and make schools / colleges as voter enrollment hubs.

Andhra CM to embark on six-day Singapore tour to attract investments

Amaravati, Jul 24 (PTI) Andhra Pradesh Chief Minister N Chandrababu Naidu will embark on a six-day visit to Singapore from July 26 to 31, aimed at attracting investments to the state. During the visit, the chief minister will engage with representatives of leading global companies, business owners, prominent industrialists, and notable personalities, an official release said on Thursday. 'This visit aims to attract investments to Andhra Pradesh," it added. This marks Naidu's second foreign visit since the formation of the TDP-led NDA government, following his earlier trip to Davos in January. The visit is expected to serve as a key platform to promote 'Brand AP (Andhra Pradesh)' and showcase the state's new industrial and ease-of-doing-business policies. Naidu will highlight Andhra Pradesh's robust infrastructure, including its ports, airports, highways, harbours, and natural resources—such as its 1,053-km coastline and skilled human capital—to encourage global investors to explore opportunities in the state. The chief minister will hold meetings with CEOs and senior representatives of various companies. On the first day, he will participate in a Telugu diaspora meeting. He will also meet senior dignitaries in Singapore to invite industrialists from the region to the 'Visakhapatnam Investment Summit' scheduled for November this year. Naidu is slated to participate in business roundtable meetings focused on the digital economy and fintech, and will attend a dedicated business roadshow in Singapore. As part of the tour, he will visit key infrastructure and logistics centres across the city-state, it further said.
