“The MLAs should act as a bridge between government and the people,” he said during the TDLP meeting held in the Assembly after the Budget was tabled.

The Union and State Ministers, MPs, MLAs, MLCs and other key TDP leaders participated in the meeting, where Mr. Naidu discussed the newly introduced ‘P4 policy’ (Public-Private-People Partnership).

The Chief Minister told the TDP leaders that the government had spent money to make the roads free of potholes within six months of coming to power. He said the pension amount was increased from ₹3,000 to ₹4,000 on the first month of assuming office.

Mr. Naidu said that the Amaravati and Polavaram projects had gained momentum, which were ‘neglected by the previous regime’.

He said that the NDA government ‘protected’ the Visakhapatnam Steel Plant (VSP) from privatisation, adding that the Visakhapatnam Railway Zone was being set up among other developments.
