Andhra Pradesh: Renaming Central schemes after CM is shameful, says Union Minister

Renaming the Central government schemes after the Chief Minister “is a shameful act that needs to be condemned,” Union Minister of State for External Affairs V. Muraleedharan has said.

Addressing the media on completion of his two-day tour of Visakhapatnam district, here on Friday, Mr. Muraleedharan said he had interacted with a number of beneficiaries and “they all seem to be happy receiving aid under the Central government schemes, but are not aware that the money for the schemes has come from the Central government.”
