Deputy Speaker Kona Raghupati has said that the administration at the district level should strive for taking the benefits of welfare schemes and development programmes of the State government to the doorstep of people.
Mr. Raghupati was speaking at the divisional-level review meeting on welfare and development schemes held at the AP Human Resources Development Institute in Bapatla.
“Inspired by the ideal of Grama Swaraj by Mahatma Gandhi, Chief Minister Y.S. Jagan Mohan Reddy has brought in the ward/village secretariat system. Transformational changes are taking place in villages, where a Rythu Bharosa Kendra, a village wellness centre, and bulk milk cooling units are being set up. Mr. Jagan Mohan Reddy has restructured the 13 districts into 26 districts to ensure better administration and Bapatla district is now a reality,’’ said Mr. Raghupati.
