AndhraPradesh Chief Minister N Chandrababu Naidu said the people-friendly coalition government is extending good governance to bring positive change into the lives of people.

Participating in ‘Mee Bhoomi–Mee Hakku’ Gram Sabha held at Panduvaripeta in P. Gannavaram constituency of Konaseema district on Wednesday, he said he is visiting people as often as possible every month to understand their problems.

Earlier, the Chief Minister unveiled the foundation stone for grid modernisation works being undertaken by Eastern Power Distribution Company of Andhra Pradesh (APEPDCL) at a cost of Rs.240 crore, aimed at strengthening the power network and enabling the supply of three-phase electricity.

The Chief Minister said the coalition government is working to safeguard the rights of farmers and landowners over their properties. The previous rulers had tampered revenue records and destroyed the system, he alleged. He also criticised the erstwhile government for introducing the Land Titling Act and said the coalition government repealed the Act soon after assuming office.

The previous government had committed several irregularities in the name of resurvey, he alleged, adding that even inherited ancestral lands were marked with photographs of individuals. He questioned the rationale behind placing images on survey stones.He said lands and properties belonging to people who were considered undesirable by the previous rulers were included in the 22-A prohibited list, causing hardship to owners.The coalition government was therefore completing the resurvey process in a robust and transparent manner and issuing pattadar passbooks with the Rajamudra, he said. The passbooks were being issued with security features such as e-KYC, QR codes and blockchain technology, he added.
