Minister inaugurates police sub-division office in Dhone
Dhone: Minister for Roads & Buildings, Investments, and Infrastructure BC Janardhan Reddy inaugurated the newly constructed Police Sub-Division Office in Dhone on Saturday. The office, built at a cost of Rs.25 lakh, was formally opened in the presence of local MLA Kotla Jaya Surya Prakash Reddy and senior police officials.
The inauguration ceremony witnessed the participation of key dignitaries including AP Seeds Corporation Chairman Dharmavaram Subbareddy, former MLA Kotla Sujathamma, Rayalaseema Range DIG Dr Koya Praveen, Nandyal SP Adhiraj Singh Rana, Dhone RDO Narasimhulu, and Dhone DSP Srinivasulu.
Following the inauguration, Minister Janardhan Reddy held a press meet at the R&B Guest House, where he spoke alongside senior police officers.
He stated, 'It is encouraging to see the new police sub-division office being established through CSR funds. The police department is one of great dedication, protecting citizens day and night, often at the cost of their personal well-being. This is truly commendable.'
He emphasized that under the current NDA government, the police department has undergone revolutionary reforms, including the deployment of drones to handle public gatherings, monitor traffic, and manage law and order situations.
Drones, he said, have also been effective in identifying suspects in narrow streets and remote areas.
He reiterated his commitment to supporting law enforcement, noting that his contribution of Rs.5.50 lakh for the drone was part of a larger effort to improve policing infrastructure.
Criticizing the previous YSRCP regime, he said, 'The police force was misused for political vendettas in the past. Today, they function independently and with integrity. The public has regained trust in the police system.'
He also credited Chief Minister N Chandrababu Naidu for his role in eliminating factionalism from the Rayalaseema region. 'It was through decisive governance and police cooperation that peace was restored. Former factionists now lead peaceful, prosperous lives thanks to those strong measures,' he said.
He also said, 'after one year under the NDA coalition, the police have successfully restored peace in villages. We are proud of the work being done to ensure law and order, free from political bias.'

CPI(M) demands regularisation of houses built by poor on govt. lands
Communist Party of India-Marxist [CPI(M)] State Secretary V. Srinivasa Rao on Sunday (June 8) demanded that the government give land titles to the poor residing in houses on government land, as per the G.O. No. 30. Addressing a press conference here, Mr. Srinivasa Rao said the G.O. 30, issued in January to provide houses to the poor, has not been implemented. The G.O. clearly states that titles should be issued to those residing even on objectionable government land and that their settlements be regularised. The government did not carry out any door-to-door campaign, and even when people voluntarily submitted applications, the process remains pending. In places like Palakoderu, applications were not even accepted and were summarily rejected, he pointed out. In West Godavari district, the officials demolished the houses even after the residents applied for regularisation. Action should be taken against such officers and the police who carried out the demolitions, and houses should be built immediately or alternative homes provided at the same locations, he said. CPIM State secretariat member Ch. Babu Rao said the kind of attention being given to 'Yogandhra' should instead be focused on 'Gr̥hāndhra' (Home-Andhra) and 'Nivāsāndhra' (Residential-Andhra), but unfortunately, the government is not taking up such work. During the elections, the NDA promised to provide house sites—three cents in villages and two cents in towns—to the people. Now that a year has passed since the NDA came to power, he demanded that the government release a White Paper, detailing how many people have actually received the house sites.
