Vijayawada: Chief Minister N Chandrababu Naidu had claimed that his US tour was a big success as he could convince the leading technology companies to invest in Andhra Pradesh. However, he sought to blame the Opposition YSR Congress for creating trouble in US during his visit by sending a fake email to the officials there. “When I am working hard to mobilise investments to the State working round the clock and restless, the Opposition tried to create problems and cause hurdles. How can we allow this party to continue? How are the people going to support such people and the party?,” he asked.

Referring to his US visit, the Chief Minister said that the solar and wind power companies have agreed to come to the State. The government is planning to establish biggest solar power plant in Kurnool and promote solar and wind power in the State. The tour had also helped him to get solar and wind energy conservation units that would make the State power surplus. The Chief Minister claimed that if the State could save the solar and wind power, there would be no power tariff hike in the years to come. He also wanted the people to go for solar power with solar units on the top of their houses. The family could use the power for their domestic requirement and even supply the excess power to the grid.

The Chief Minister further said that he was planning to introduce electricity-operated vehicles for the private and transport purposes. The electric vehicles could be used using the solar power recharge and that would bring down the pollution levels in the State, he felt.

The Chief Minister further said that his tour had also gave him highest satisfaction as he could focus on promotion of electronics, electricity, employment and agriculture in the State. The 10-day tour had helped him to plan for creation of more assets for the State, he said and expressed confidence that the results of his tour would be seeing the light early as the officials have already started working on them.
