AP CM Nara Chandrababu Naidu is holding Collectors conference in Amaravati. The key conference, which sets the direction for governance at grassroots level, is being held at Secretariat’s 5th Block. As this is the first Collectors conference after TDP-BJP-JSP alliance Government came into power, it assumed significance.
“This is a historical conference which will rewrite the history. In the first Collectors conference in previous Govt, former CM had ordered to demolish Praja Vedika. His rule started with demolition and destructed entire Andhra Pradesh. Brand AP has been damaged. Officers morale has been hit. Now we are starting with the positive intention to rebuild AP. We have to work hard to rebuild the state, which has been totally destroyed,” said CM Chandrababu Naidu addressing Collectors conference.
Chandrababu Naidu directed officials to make field visits to know people’s issues, instead of just confining to the offices. Reminding that it was officers who build Hyderabad during his earlier stint as CM of undivided AP, Chandrababu Naidu directed officials to play a proactive role and display smart attitude, to rebuild AP.
