On the occasion of 78th Independence Day, AP Chief Minister Nara Chandrababu launched Anna Canteen in Gudivada on Thursday. Through Anna Canteens, breakfast, lunch and dinner will be served for the needy people for Rs 5.

‘Anna Canteens’ was the popular initiative of CM Chandrababu Naidu. Lakhs of poor people benefitted from Anna Canteens between 2014 and 19. But YSRCP Government discontinued them. Bringing them back, CM Chandrababu Naidu launched Anna Canteen in Gudivada.

TDP-BJP-Janasena Government has decided to set up total 203 Anna Canteens all over the state. While CM Chandrababu Naidu officially launched in Gudivada, total 100 Anna Canteens will be opened from Friday, August 16 in the first phase. Remaining Anna Canteens will be launched in the next phase.
