During a recent visit to Rushikonda, Andhra Pradesh Chief Minister N. Chandrababu Naidu expressed profound disappointment over the environmental degradation and excessive construction undertaken by the previous YSRC government. Inspecting the structures built in the scenic region, Naidu, accompanied by state ministers and MLAs, highlighted the misuse of public funds on extravagant projects that prioritize luxury over public welfare.
“Something that no one could have imagined has happened,” Naidu stated, addressing the press. “These buildings reflect how public resources were diverted for personal luxury. Heart-breaking truths are emerging.” Naidu also revealed that despite efforts by the media and public activists to uncover the extent of these developments, the previous government had kept Rushikonda’s exploitation concealed, even misleading bodies like the National Green Tribunal (NGT), the High Court, and the central government. The Chief Minister mentioned how he and Pawan Kalyan were previously prevented from visiting the site, limiting their ability to witness the damage firsthand.
In addition to condemning the prior government’s environmental policies, Naidu announced a significant infrastructure initiative: by Sankranti, all roads in Andhra Pradesh are set to be pothole-free. The government has allocated a substantial ₹7,860 crore for road repairs, a move that aims to improve daily commutes and ensure road safety for the state’s citizens.
Through these actions, Naidu and his administration are committed to restoring Andhra Pradesh’s natural beauty and ensuring responsible use of public funds for essential infrastructure projects. Citizens of the state are hopeful for a return to transparency and sustainability.
