Chief Minister N. Chandrababu Naidu announced that the establishment of Vision Action Plan Unit offices at all district and constituency levels marks a formal launch of the ‘Swarna Andhra 2047’ vision. Until now, MLAs had no dedicated government office at the constituency level, and that gap has now been filled through these units. Each unit will be staffed with a team of nine members, and ₹10 lakh has been allocated per office for its operations, he said.

Addressing MPs, MLAs, Collectors, and officials during a virtual inauguration from the State Secretariat, the Chief Minister called on them to drive the implementation of this vision forward. This initiative is a valuable opportunity for MLAs. The public representatives can make citizens active participants in the transformation journey, he said.

Mr. Naidu said that ‘Talli Ki Vandanam’ programme will be launched this month and free bus travel scheme for women from August 15. “Our goal is to ensure 15 lakh Golden Families are adopted by mentors by August 15. A referral system will be introduced, and officials who facilitate more mentor-families will be rewarded,” he said.

Focus on services sector

MSME parks will be set up in each constituency and Ratan Tata Hubs in Amaravati. The government is focusing heavily on the services sector. As incomes grow, more welfare schemes can be implemented. Technology is being integrated into governance, which should be rooted in a humanitarian outlook, the Chief Minister said.

Mr. Naidu interacted via video conference with public representatives and officials across the 26 districts and 175 constituencies. He assured that each Vision Action Plan Unit will function in full capacity with proper funding and staffing. Each Constituency Vision Action Plan Unit will be chaired by the local MLA. A Special Officer will serve as the Executive Vice-Chairperson. Other members will include the local MLC, Municipal/Urban Panchayat Chairperson, RDO/Sub-Collector, Tahsildar, MPDO, and Municipal Commissioner. The MPDO will act as the Convener.

CM praises Union Minister

Union Minister Rammohan Naidu, who participated in the Vision Action Plan launch, announced that he would adopt 10 Golden Families under the P4 – Zero Poverty initiative. Mr. Naidu appreciated his commitment and urged other public representatives to follow suit and become mentors.

Ministers, MLAs, Collectors, and senior officials also took part in the event.
