Andhra Pradesh Chief Minister Chandrababu Naidu proposes P-4 system to achieve zero poverty. Extending his Sankranti greetings on X, the Chief Minister exhorts the 10% people who reached great heights in society to lend a helping hand to uplift the 20% people at the bottom, who have no access to drinking water, health, nutrition, and education.
Extending his Sankranti greetings to the Telugus across the globe, Andhra Pradesh Chief Minister N. Chandrababu Naidu has said, “A real festival is when there are no economic imbalances and when living conditions of people improve.”
In a post on X on Sunday, Mr. Naidu said the State government had been constantly working to bring light into people’s lives with welfare, development and good governance.
The government had unveiled the Swarnandhra Vision-2047 with 10 principles, and the aim was to ensure Telugus reached the number one position in the world. “The first principle is zero poverty,” he added.
Stating that the P-4 (Public-Private-People-Partnership) system was aimed at achieving zero poverty, the Chief Minister said the lifestyle of crores of people had been transformed with the reforms and policies implemented in the combined State since 1995.
The P-3 (Public-Private-Partnership) system, which had earlier been introduced as a part of the economic reforms, could generate a lot of employment and wealth, M. Naidu said.
Those hailing from ordinary peasant families had reached high positions by utilising the opportunities provided at that time, he said. Several sections of people reached great heights both in the country and abroad. Those who had become global citizens were now turning global leaders, the Chief Minister observed.
Expressing concern over lakhs of families still reeling under acute poverty, Mr. Naidu said that as per the Central census, destitution prevailed in several families in the rural and urban parts of Andhra Pradesh.
