TRS government accelerated Suryapet growth: G Jagadish Reddy

Suryapet: Minister for Energy G Jagadish Reddy stated that public welfare was the top priority of the State government and added that Telangana got its identity on international level with its innovative schemes and the people-friendly ruling.

On Monday, he distributed Bathukamma sarees to the beneficiaries in several wards of the town and also laid foundation stones for Rs 80 lakh worth works in the town.

Speaking on the occasion, he urged the people of Suryapet to compare the development of Suryapet and the State before and after the formation of Telangana.

"The Telangana government is heading forward in all aspects and at the same time it is honoring all the castes and religions equally," he said, adding that the Bathukamma sarees could not be distributed due to election code in force at the time of Dasara festival.

"The TRS government is giving importance to women and in this regard, it has brought in several welfare schemes like Kalyana Lakshmi, Shaadi Mubarak, KCR Kits, Amma Vodi etc," the Minister added.

Stating that leaders who represented Suryapet constituency before 2014 never fulfilled their promises, Jagadish informed that he was trying his best to keep all promises. "Whatever development witnessed in Suryapet in past six years is just a beginning. I will strive to transform Suryapet into a model town in the coming up days," he said, adding that a modern market would be built in the place of old agriculture market.

Rajya Sabha member Badugula Lingaiah Yadav, District Library Chairman N Srinivas Goud, Zilla Parishad vice-chairman G Venkatnarayana Goud, Revenue Divisional Officer Mohan Rao, Suryapet Municipal Commissioner Ramanujula Reddy, TRS party State secretary Ganduri Pravallika, local leaders and workers participated in the programme.
