In a noteworthy display of political strength, the YSRCP conducted the Samajika Sadhikara bus yatra in Gopalapuram (North Zone), Nandigama (Central Zone), and Kurnool (South Zone) constituencies on Sunday, drawing substantial crowds. The event showcased Chief Minister Jagan’s accomplishments in social welfare and highlighted the developmental progress achieved by Andhra Pradesh over the last four-and-a-half years.
Prominent party leaders, including Deputy Chief Ministers K Narayana Swamy and SB Amzath Basha, as well as Ministers Merugu Nagarjuna, Jogi Ramesh, Adimulapu Suresh, Gummanur Jayaram, and others actively participated in the bus yatra, underscoring the ruling party’s dedication to uplifting and empowering marginalized communities.
Minister Karumuri Nageswara Rao outlined the strides taken by CM Jagan to improve the standard of living for the people. He asserted, “Under CM Jagan’s leadership, Andhra Pradesh has witnessed a significant reduction in the poverty rate, dropping from 11% to 6%. Additionally, the government has allocated Rs 65,000 crore to ensure educational access for underprivileged children.”
Criticising the Opposition for spreading misinformation, Minister Rao remarked, “While CM Jagan tirelessly works towards securing a brighter future for our children, the opposition TDP and Yellow Media are unjustly criticizing and undermining the government’s efforts.”
Commending CM Jagan for his initiatives in the education sector, Home Minister Taneti Vanita stated, “CM Jagan’s implementation of the Amma Vodi scheme has effectively addressed school dropouts. Simultaneously, the government is distributing smart tablets to students in government schools, aiming to enhance their educational experience.”
In a public meeting in Nandigama, MLA Mondithoka Jagan Mohan Rao spotlighted a significant achievement of the YSRCP government. He declared, “Over the last 4.5 years, the YSRCP government has allocated nearly Rs 5 lakh crore, constituting 50% of the state budget, directly benefiting the poor. This groundbreaking initiative makes Andhra Pradesh the first state in the country to implement such a large-scale welfare program.”
Commending CM Jagan for prioritizing human development alongside poverty alleviation, Jagan Mohan Rao noted, “Transformative changes in the education and health sectors, initiated by CM Jagan’s government, along with the provision of permanent houses for all homeless individuals, have significantly reduced poverty and enhanced the living standards of the poor.”
Deputy Chief Minister Amzath Basha said, “During the YSRCP’s tenure, CM Jagan has allocated Rs. 23,175 crore for the upliftment of Muslim communities in the state. This is a substantial increase compared to the Rs. 2,650 crore spent during the previous tenure of Chandrababu.”
Minister Adimulapu Suresh highlighted, “Thanks to CM Jagan’s initiatives, poverty is no longer a hindrance to higher education for our children. Whether pursuing advanced studies or learning in English medium, this signifies a significant step forward in educational empowerment.”
He added, “In the health sector, CM Jagan has spearheaded transformative changes, providing medical assistance up to Rs 25 lakhs through the AarogyaSri scheme for the benefit of the economically disadvantaged.”
MLA Hafeez Khan said, “CM Jagan has disbursed Rs 2.36 lakh crore through direct benefit transfer (DBT) under various welfare schemes, substantially improving the economic status of the poor beneficiaries.”
