CM Jagan gives nod to new projects in Pedakurapadu Assembly Constituency in A.P.

After launching the distribution of kits under the Jagananna Vidya Kanuka scheme on Monday, Chief Minister Y.S. Jagan Mohan Reddy attended various development functions and sanctioned new projects in Pedakurapadu assembly constituency in Palnadu district.

New bridge

He laid the foundation stone for a high-level bridge on the River Krishna at Maddilapadu in the constituency, with an estimated cost of ₹60 crore. This bridge will reduce the distance between Palnadu district and Hyderabad in Telangana by at least 80 km. Once built, it will allow people from Sattenapalli and other areas to reach their destinations without crossing Guntur and Vijayawada, which will, in turn, reduce the traffic burden on these two cities.
