He reminded the efforts of Devarkadra MLA Ala Venkateshwar Reddy, who purchased four acres from his pocket when government land was not available for the houses' construction in Annasagar village.

'Also, it was this MLA, who encouraged the contractors, who were unwilling to take up the construction works and assured them an additional payment of Rs 50 lakh to them.' The people of Devarkadra and Annasagar village are fortunate to have Ala Venkateshwar Reddy, who is constantly working hard for the welfare of his people and for the constituency development, he stated.
