Govt allocates Rs 17 cr for 29 parks in Nellore
Tirupati: The state govt has allocated Rs 17 crore for establishment of 29 parks in Nellore, which is aimed at increasing green cover in the town. Nellore rural MLA Kotamreddy Sridhar Reddy laid the foundation stone for 14 parks on Wednesday. The foundation stone for the establishment of 15 more parks will be laid on Thursday and Friday, he said. Kotamreddy also made a startling revelation about land sharks encroaching upon reserve lands meant for the establishment of parks across Nellore rural assembly constituency. "Besides cases of encroachment of govt lands, it has also come to our notice that several realtors, who ought to have handed over reserve lands to Nellore municipal corporation, continue to hold the said lands in their possession illegally. Overall it has been estimated that approximately Rs 150 crore worth lands are in illegal occupation. We have taken up the issue with the state govt and a thorough enquiry will be carried out to expose everyone involved in the dubious land deals besides reclaiming govt lands," the TDP leader asserted. Thanking the state govt for allocating Rs 17 crore for the establishment of parks, Kotamreddy said works related to all 29 proposed parks will be completed within 90 days.

Andhra Pradesh MLA hails CM Nara Chandrababu Naidu as role model for electricity reforms in country
TIRUPATI: Nellore Rural MLA Kotamreddy Sridhar Reddy asserted that chief minister Nara Chandrababu Naidu was a role model for electricity reforms for the entire country. During his address on the second day of the TDP's Mahanadu held at Kadapa, Kotamreddy recalled that while 16 chief ministers who ruled Andhra Pradesh in the past could produce only 5,000 MW of power during their combined regime, Nara Chandrababu Naidu generated 15,000 MW of power during his tenure alone. 'While power cuts and interrupted power supply were the order of the day back then, today the people of the state are enjoying the fruits of uninterrupted power supply because of the electricity reforms brought by our visionary leader Nara Chandrababu Naidu,' the Nellore Rural MLA asserted. Criticising the previous YSRCP govt, Kotamreddy asserted that it destroyed all systems in the state and brought it to a point where even paying salaries to the employees became a daunting task. He stressed that if Chandrababu Naidu didn't become chief minister, the state wouldn't have been able to progress in any manner from the ruins of the erstwhile regime. The Nellore Rural MLA also recalled how Nara Lokesh, through his Yuvagalam Padayatra, restored confidence among the people of the state. 'The then YSRCP govt created all kinds of hurdles for his Padayatra, but Lokesh marched forward without any fear of the cases or the brutal force being unleashed against him by the then regime. Today, the time has come for Lokesh to play a bigger role in the party in order to further strengthen the party before the 2029 general elections in the state,' Kotamreddy asserted.
