The minister was addressing the gathering after laying the foundation stone for development works worth Rs 3.17 crore in different wards of the Yellandu municipality.

Stating that the government was committed to overall development of municipalities, he said: “The Congress government is prioritising comprehensive development of urban areas. It will ensure that Yellandu municipality too would witness significant progress.”

Emphasising that Yellandu would be developed as a model town, he said: “Funds have been allocated to resolve long-pending CC road and drainage issues in wards 1, 4, 7, 8, 9, 18, 22 and 24.”

Referring to recent gram panchayat elections, the minister said that the people have given a resounding mandate to the Congress as they are impressed by the good governance being provided by the Congress as well as the welfare schemes it has been implementing in the last two years.
