Unlike Chandrababu, Chief Minister YS Jagan Mohan Reddy always strived for the uplift of weaker sections and wanted to bring them to the forefront, where they can be part of decision-making process, Ramakrishna Reddy said.
Home Minister Mekathoti Sucharita appreciated that the Chief Minister has given a lion's share to the women. Even schemes like Aasara, Cheyutha, Ammavodi are all meant to empower women, she said.
