Need collective efforts to develop Tiruvuru Assembly constituency: Vijayawada MP
Vijayawada MP Kesineni Sivanath stressed the need for collective efforts to develop Tiruvuru Assembly constituency, and pledged his support to achieve the developmental goals.
Participating in the Public Grievance Redressal System (PGRS) programme at Tiruvuru on Monday, Mr. Sivanath said that people need not travel to the NTR district headquarters to have their issues resolved as they could approach the officials locally under the PGRS.
Mr. Sivanath added that a total of 278 petitions were received during the PGRS programme, including 104 related to the Revenue Department. He requested Collector G. Lakshmisha to solve certain problems to be dealt with by MROs with due priority, and noted that the constituency has a large population of SCs and STs who require all the possible support.
Nearly 2,000 acres have been identified for industrial development in Nandigama and Jaggaiahpet constituencies, Mr. Sivanath said, adding that all efforts should be made to realise their potential.
MLA K. Srinivasa Rao, Andhra Pradesh State Organic Product Certification Authority Chairman S. Devadatta, and RDO K. Madhuri also took part.

CITU seeks immediate release of salaries to sanitation workers
The Centre of Indian Trade Unions (CITU) on Friday (June 6) demanded the immediate release of three months' pending salaries to sanitation workers and night watchmen working at government schools and colleges. The CITU submitted a petition to NTR District Education Officer M.V. Subba Rao on Friday. In response, the officer promised that pending salaries of three months for night watchmen and school ayahs (helpers) will be released within two days. CITU Union leaders N.C.H. Supraja and M. Someswara Rao said the sanitation workers in schools across the NTR district must be retained. They also condemned the government's action of removing ayahs, citing policy regulations. They slammed the government for delaying even the paltry salaries paid to these workers and not implementing minimum wage laws. They demanded that the government increase the salaries of ayahs working in schools in line with inflation. They strongly opposed the proposed policy of appointing only one ayah for every 300 students, stating that it would render hundreds of ayahs jobless. They urged the ruling coalition government to resolve the issues faced by sanitation workers, increase their salaries and refrain from arbitrarily dismissing ayahs without valid reason. Other demands include extension of ESI and PF benefits to these workers, issuance of identity cards, and provision of uniforms by the government.

Odisha CM Mohan Majhi advocates for citizen-centric revenue administration in state
Bhubaneswar: Odisha Chief Minister Mohan Charan Majhi on Wednesday called for the need of a transparent, responsive, and citizen-centric revenue administration. While attending the State-Level Revenue Officers' Conference at Lok Seva Bhawan here, Majhi strongly emphasized zero tolerance towards corruption, especially in land dealings, and warned that any irregularities—especially in tribal and scheduled caste land transactions—would attract strict action. 'Such illegal transactions are rarely possible without the notice of tehsildars. If you are found complicit, you will be held accountable,' he cautioned. The Chief Minister also asserted that his government's top priority is to reach the unreached—those historically neglected and underprivileged. He urged the officers to protect valuable government lands from encroachments and to resolve land-related cases like mutation and partition with utmost transparency and within stipulated timelines. 'We are planning several reforms in the revenue sector soon. While handling land dispute cases, remember you are rendering justice. Conduct yourself with integrity,' stated CM Majhi. The Chief Minister during his address hailed tehsildars as the "backbone of grassroots governance," stressing their pivotal role in delivering justice and resolving public grievances promptly. 'Your office must not be a place of fear for the public, but a space of trust,' he said. Reiterating his government's commitment to modernizing land administration, the Chief Minister declared, 'no person in Odisha shall remain landless. Even those possessing less than four decimals of land will be treated as landless and provided land under the government's land allocation scheme. "Effective implementation of this scheme depends on your active involvement." Majhi praised the role of revenue officers in the swift evacuation of 8.1 lakh people to 6,210 safe shelters under the "Zero Casualty" mission during cyclone 'Dana'. With the onset of the monsoon, CM Majhi directed officials to remain alert and proactive. 'The monsoon has already begun in some areas. Please monitor weather updates regularly and act as per SOPs to ensure public safety,' he instructed, noting that the monsoon season and cyclonic threats will persist till November. Concluding his speech, the Chief Minister said: 'The Revenue Department is the mirror of clean and good governance. Your benchmark should not be power or prestige, but dedication to public service.'
