The Telugu Desam Party (TDP) has created a record of sorts by reaching out to 50 lakh families in just 18 days as part of its door-to-door campaign on the coalition government's achievements in the last one year, during which the party cadres are also gathering public feedback on the performance of the ruling parties.
Swarna Andhra Pradesh-2047 Vision and Super-6 schemes are being highlighted by the TDP leaders and grassroots cadre. They are also finding out what more the people are expecting from the government.
The campaign titled 'Suparipalana Lo Tholi Adugu' (the first step in good governance) was launched by Chief Minister N. Chandrababu Naidu in Kuppam on July 2, and IT Minister Nara Lokesh in Mangalagiri.
The TDP cadres are explaining to people about the government's welfare and development initiatives, so that those eligible for various schemes can avail of the benefits, a release issued by the TDP said.
The campaign aims to inform citizens about major welfare schemes such as pensions, recruitment of teachers, Thalliki Vandhanam, Anna Canteens, and Deepam-2, create awareness about investments being mobilised and jobs being provided through various projects in the State.
The TDP leaders are distributing pamphlets customised for the three regions of Uttarandhra, the other coastal districts and Rayalaseema. These leaflets contain details of the region-specific development programmes, making it easy for the people to understand the progress being achieved.
Mr. Lokesh is monitoring the campaign by keeping in touch with the people's representatives, leaders and workers. The campaign is structured in such a way that the Ministers can cover up to 85 constituencies. The houses covered by each worker are being tracked and updated daily on a central dashboard.

Govt has to sell A.P. to implement women's scheme, says Minister

Minister for Agriculture K. Atchannaidu on Tuesday stirred the hornets nest by saying that the government has to sell off Andhra Pradesh State if it wants to implement the 'Adabidda Nidhi' scheme one of the Super Six assurances given by the Telugu Desam Party prior to the 2024 general election. Mr. Atchannaidu made the sensational comments during a public meeting held at Mangalampalam in Kotthavalasa mandal of Vizianagaram on Tuesday. While participating in Suparipalana Toli Adugu programme organised to highlight the government's 'achievements' in the last one year, Mr. Atchannaidu said that it would be a herculean task for the government to provide financial assistance of ₹1,500 every month to all women above 18 years under the scheme. 'The government is left with no option except to sell the State to implement the Adabidda Nidhi, scheme. Despite the funding concerns, Mr. Atchannaidu announced that free bus travel for women will be rolled out from August 15, on Independence Day.

All basic amenities will be provided at mega housing project at Tangudubilli in Visakhapatnam district, says Bheemunipatnam MLA

Bheemunipatnam MLA Ganta Srinivasa Rao has assured that all basic amenities will be provided at the mega housing project coming up across 690 acres at Tangudubilli in Anandapuram mandal. Of the proposed 16,996 houses under the project, 2,036 have already been completed. The MLA conducted a field-level inspection of the project site on Tuesday. Speaking to the media later, he criticised the previous YSRCP government, alleging that the housing policy was designed to benefit party leaders under the guise of the Land Pooling Scheme (LPS). He said the former government had failed to ensure basic infrastructure in the area. 'Houses were allotted to beneficiaries living in Visakhapatnam city, nearly 30 km away, while ignoring eligible applicants from the village itself,' he pointed out. Reaffirming the coalition government's commitment, Mr. Srinivasa Rao said that 3 cents of land in rural areas and 2 cents in urban areas would be allocated to eligible beneficiaries. He also highlighted the plight of those who had availed loans for TIDCO houses and are now struggling to repay them. The MLA interacted with three beneficiaries over the phone to gather feedback on the quality of the housing units and the challenges faced. He later spoke to District Collector M.N. Harendhira Prasad and urged immediate steps to provide essential amenities such as power, drinking water, internal roads, and drainage systems. Expressing displeasure over the absence of the contractor during his visit, Mr. Srinivasa Rao said he had received multiple complaints regarding the quality of construction. He directed officials to intensify monitoring and ensure quality standards are upheld. Housing PD Sattibabu, Executive Engineer Suri Babu, and MRO S. Suri Babu were present during the visit. Later, under the 'Suparipalana lo Tholi Adugu' programme, the MLA conducted a door-to-door campaign in Tangudubilli village and interacted with residents. He assured them that despite financial challenges, the State government was committed to fulfilling all election promises. TDP leaders Ghattamneni Subashchandra Bose, Tatraju Appa Rao, B.R.B. Naidu, Gandreddi Swamy Naidu, Yerra Raju, Balireddy Mallikarjuna Rao, Srikanth Raju, and S. Siva also took part in the campaign.

YSRCP demands apology from TDP MLA for making derogatory remarks against former Minister

The YSR Congress Party (YSRCP) strongly condemned the derogatory remarks made by TDP MLA Bollisetty Srinivas against its leader and former Minister R.K. Roja and demanded a public apology. Addressing the media, YSRCP leader Putta Shiva Shankar called the comments an insult to women in public life and urged immediate withdrawal of the statements. Mr. Shivashankar also attacked Chief Minister N. Chandrababu Naidu and Agriculture Minister K. Atchannaidu, accusing them of deceiving voters during the election campaign. He criticised the TDP for failing to implement key promises, including the 'Aadabidda Nidhi' scheme meant to provide financial assistance to women. He took particular exception to the Agriculture Minister's recent remark that implementing such schemes would require 'selling the State,' calling it an admission of poor planning. Mr. Shivashankar questioned why such promises were made if they could not be fulfilled. The YSRCP leader alleged that none of the 143 election promises, including free bus travel for women and unemployment allowances had been delivered. He also raised concerns about alleged asset transfers to unknown entities and demanded the Chief Minister's resignation.
