Chandrababu Is My Inspiration: Pawan Kalyan
Pawan Kalyan, during a public meeting in Poodicherla village of Orvakal Mandal, Kurnool district, stated that N. Chandrababu Naidu is his inspiration and that he is working with the motivation derived from Chandrababu Naidu. Pawan Kalyan performed the Bhoomi Puja for the construction of a farm pond at Raithu Rajanna’s field in Poodicherla village before addressing the gathering.
Speaking at the meeting, Pawan Kalyan said that when Andhra Pradesh was going through difficult times, the alliance won the support of the people by securing a massive victory of 164 out of 175 assembly seats and 21 parliamentary seats. He credited Chandrababu Naidu for leading the state towards development and emphasized that Chandrababu Naidu genuinely wishes for the welfare of the state.
He expressed his belief that Chandrababu Naidu’s experience is crucial for the state and added, “I wish for Chandrababu Naidu to serve as Chief Minister for 15 years.” Pawan Kalyan also praised Chandrababu Naidu for the successful implementation of the “Palle Panduga” program, attributing its success to his efforts.
Addressing the issue of water scarcity in Rayalaseema, Pawan Kalyan stated that while the region often faces difficulties due to inadequate water storage facilities during heavy rains, the goal is to complete 1.55 lakh farm ponds by May. He noted that if these ponds fill up during the monsoon, around one TMC of water would be available for use. He also expressed his aspiration to see Rayalaseema transform into a prosperous region as envisioned by Sri Krishnadevaraya.
Pawan Kalyan highlighted that the Chief Minister desires the state’s welfare, and inspired by that vision, he is strengthening all the departments entrusted to him. He claimed that the state set a world record by organizing 13,326 Grama Sabhas in a single day, preparing a comprehensive list of tasks to be undertaken for development.
According to him, employment was provided to 97.44 lakh laborers across 52.92 lakh families within their native villages. Criticizing the former YSRCP government, he alleged that only 4,000 kilometers of roads were constructed in the last five years. In contrast, he claimed that the NDA government built nearly 4,000 kilometers of roads within just eight months.
Pawan Kalyan further stated that road connectivity was provided to tribal villages with a population of over 100. Additionally, he mentioned that essential infrastructure, including electricity and drinking water, was made available in these tribal areas.
