Braving the scorching heat, Governor Tamilisai Soundararajan endeared herself to members of the Konda Reddi tribe, a Particularly Vulnerable Tribal Group (PVTG), in remote tribal pockets of Bhadradri-Kothagudem district by visiting their thatched houses, having lunch with them and launching a string of initiatives aimed at improving access to healthcare and ensuring their all-round development.
The Governor on Tuesday visited the remote Pusukunta village in Dammapeta mandal in the tribal heartland as part of her pilot project to improve the nutritional status of Konda Reddi tribals.
Clad in their traditional attire, Konda Reddi tribals gave a rousing welcome to the Governor amid pulsating drum beats. The interior tribal habitation, which is one among the two remote habitations adopted by the Governor for implementation of the nutrition intervention programme on a pilot basis, came alive with a festive atmosphere.
