“We have taken steps for the welfare of farmers, including the purchase of 55 lakh metric tonnes of paddy. This month itself, we will provide financial assistance to farmers under the ‘Annadata Sukhibhava’ scheme. We have given top priority to irrigation projects and have undertaken a programme to provide water to every acre,” he said.

“We have resumed the construction of the capital and the Polavaram project. We have achieved the railway zone. We have protected the steel plant,” the Chief Minister said.

He assured the people that with the strength of their blessings, the government will undertake more welfare and development programmes in the coming days.

We have completed many tasks in one year that the previous government could not do in five years. We are not boasting that we completed all the tasks in one year. There is a lot to be done. We will work hard every day for the goal we have set. We will engage in public service,” he said thanking people and government employees who cooperated in good governance.
