In response to recent floods in Vijayawada, particularly in areas like Singhnagar which were heavily affected by the overflowing Budameru river, the state government of Andhra Pradesh launched urgent flood relief measures. Despite these efforts, a controversy has erupted over claims that Rs. 23 crores were allegedly spent on matches and candles for flood relief. The state government has strongly refuted these allegations.

The rumors, which spread widely on social media, implied that a significant portion of the relief fund was wasted on trivial items such as candles and matches. However, RP Sisodia, the Special Principal Secretary for the Revenue Department, issued a statement dismissing these claims as false propaganda. Sisodia clarified that while matches and candles were distributed to aid those affected by the power outages, the primary expenditure was directed toward mobile generators to ensure that affected areas had essential power support during the night.

Government’s Stand on Flood Relief Expenditure

Sisodia expressed frustration over what he termed as baseless rumors that undermine the government’s efforts. He emphasized that the funds allocated for flood relief were spent on necessary resources to aid victims during the crisis. The mobile generators played a crucial role in providing temporary power to flood-affected neighborhoods, particularly during the nights when the absence of power posed significant risks and discomfort to residents.

Denouncement of False Campaigns

The state government made it clear that any allegations suggesting misuse of funds are completely unfounded. The government is determined to address these floods responsibly and has taken a firm stance against any attempts to tarnish its image through misinformation.

An Appeal to the Public

Sisodia urged citizens to avoid believing in or spreading unverified information. He reassured the public that the government is dedicated to providing transparent and effective relief to those affected by the floods. He requested that the public consider the efforts undertaken by authorities to ensure the safety and well-being of residents during these challenging times.

The state government’s priority remains on restoring normalcy to flood-affected areas, and any attempts to distort these efforts through baseless accusations have been condemned.

Government healthcare professionals at primary health centers (PHCs) are optimistic about the state government addressing their request to annul GO 85, which reduces the in-service allocation for pursuing postgraduate programs from 30% to 15% and finding a peaceful resolution. They highlighted their contributions during the Covid-19 crisis to assist the state in managing effectively and lowering casualties. The doctors urged the government to retract GO 85, citing that it restricts their chances to pursue advanced studies at a time when demand for specialized courses is on the rise. Dr. T. Rajesh, President of the Andhra Pradesh PHC Doctors’ Association, stated, “We urge the state government to amicably resolve this matter. If GO 85 is enforced, PHC doctors serving the government will be denied the opportunity to enhance their skills and better serve the community.”

The PHC doctors have been protesting in various ways since September 10 and are prepared to escalate their protest by halting emergency services on September 14. They are planning a ‘Chalo Vijayawada’ march on September 15 to the health director’s office and will commence an indefinite fast from September 16 if the state government does not engage in discussions to address the issue.
