Andhra Pradesh is a role model for other States in implementation of social welfare schemes, says Rajam MLA
Rajam MLA Kondru Murali Mohan from the Telugu Desam Party(TD) on Saturday said that Andhra Pradesh had become a role model for other States with effective implementation of social welfare schemes, including distribution of pensions for elderly people, physically challenged, widows and others. He distributed pensions to eligible persons at V.R. Agraharam in Rajam mandal on Saturday. Mr. Murali Mohan said that the Chandrababu Naidu government was very prompt in distribution of pensions in spite of financial problems. 'Enhancement of pension amount from ₹4,000 from ₹3,000 is a remarkable achievement for the government since no other State in the country dared to take up the welfare measure. The government will credit ₹20,000 in the accounts of farmers very soon and free bus facility will be implemented from August 15. These steps are part of implementation of Super-Six schemes,' said Mr. Murali Mohan. Responding to petitions of locals, he promised to take up road repairs and lay new roads in various parts of Rajam constituency after completing the budget assessment by the departments concerned in the constituency.
