100 per cent housing by 2029, says Andhra Pradesh CM Chandrababu Naidu
Digital Desk | Amaravati, Oct 4 (IANS) Andhra Pradesh Chief Minister N. Chandrababu Naidu on Sunday said that his government is committed to providing housing to every poor family and announced that the hundred per cent housing programme will be achieved by 2029. He, along with Union Minister for Rural Development Shivraj Singh Chouhan, laid the foundation for the construction of 3 lakh houses across the state under Pradhan Mantri Awas YojanaGramin (PMAY-G) 2.0 at Burripalem in Guntur district. Speaking on the occasion, the Chief Minister said the Centre had initially sanctioned only 75,000 houses to Andhra Pradesh under the regular quota. However, following a special request, the Union Government had sanctioned 3 lakh houses. He said Union Minister Shivraj Singh Chouhan had agreed to sanction another 3 lakh houses as soon as the current batch was completed, and an additional 3 lakh houses next year, taking the total allocation to 9 lakh houses. Referring to Burripalem, the Chief Minister said the village was synonymous with legendary actor Superstar Krishna and that it had now also given rise to a political hero in the form of Union Minister Pemmasani Chandrasekhar. He said the coalition government, backed by the people's mandate, was committed to delivering good governance by ensuring that welfare and development reached every section of society. Under the Pattabhishekam initiative, long-pending land disputes had been resolved and house sites distributed to the poor. House sites worth Rs 52,000 crore had been provided in Visakhapatnam, Vijayawada, Mangalagiri and other parts of the State. The Chief Minister said the coalition government's agenda was to support every community and every region. Praising Union Minister Shivraj Singh Chouhan, Chandrababu Naidu described him as a leader dedicated to the welfare of the poor. He recalled Chouhan's contribution to Madhya Pradesh through major river-linking projects. He said Chouhan's close association with the people had earned him the affectionate title of Mama among the people of Madhya Pradesh. Naidu criticised the previous government for mismanaging the housing programme between 2019 and 2024, alleging that 6 lakh houses meant for the poor had been cancelled and that corruption and irregularities had undermined the initiative. He said house sites had been allotted in unsuitable locations, including tanks and hillocks, rendering them unfit for habitation. As a result, nearly 4 lakh beneficiaries had returned their allotted house sites. The Chief Minister said the present government had renewed its commitment to constructing quality houses for the poor. As part of this initiative, 3D concrete printing technology would be introduced on a pilot basis at Burripalem. Houses built using this technology were expected to maintain indoor temperatures at least 8 degrees Celsius lower than the outside temperature, providing greater comfort to residents. He said that after successful completion of 3D technology houses, construction of 5,000 houses will be taken up with the same technology to make Andhra Pradesh a role model in 3D technology housing programme.

Land worth Rs 52,000 crore distributed among poor, says Andhra Pradesh CM
Digital Desk | Vijayawada, Sep 30 (IANS) Andhra Pradesh Chief Minister N. Chandrababu Naidu said on Wednesday that the state government has distributed land worth Rs 52,000 crore to the poor. He distributed house-site regularisation pattas to 26,000 families in Vijayawada under the Pedalaku Pattabhishekam programme. CM Naidu stated that, moved by the hardships the poor have faced for decades, the government decided to grant them rights on their land. We distributed land titles to 28,000 people in Visakhapatnam, 5,800 families in Mangalagiri, and now to 26,000 families in Vijayawada. I consider it my good fortune to distribute land titles to a total of 60,000 poor people, he said. He stated that the value of the land being distributed in Vijayawada stands at Rs 28,112 crore; on average, each beneficiary has received a plot of 130 square yards. The value of each plot ranges from Rs 50 lakh to Rs 2 crore. This is the 'coronation' of the poor's self-respect by the coalition government, he said. He claimed that the coalition government was fulfilling every promise made during the elections. The 'double-engine government' in Andhra Pradesh is forging ahead, implementing development programmes at jet speed. We have put the statewhich suffered five years of destruction under the previous administrationback on track, and we will support every family facing difficulties, he said. Naidu recalled that food, shelter, and clothing for the poor was the slogan of Telugu Desam Party (TDP) founder and former Chief Minister N. T. Rama Rao. He alleged that between 2019 and 2024, the then YSRCP government created property disputes in every household. They even placed their own photographs on the land title passbooks. Problems were created through the Land Titling Act. The coalition government is conducting a re-survey of all lands in the state and issuing Pattadar passbooks bearing the official state emblem, he said. The TDP chief alleged that the previous government spent Rs 800 crore just to paint images on survey stones. He claimed that the government was striving to establish a new system that is free from disputes. We are prioritising various initiatives to ensure the continuous cycle of welfare, development, and wealth creation. We have already spent Rs 1.50 lakh crore on development works. Stating that development and welfare are the two eyes of the coalition government. The Chief Minister remarked that development is essential for future wealth creation. He vowed to complete 36 irrigation projects at a cost of Rs 35,000 crore over the next three years. By the time of the 2028 Krishna Pushkaralu, we will have abundant water from the Krishna and Godavari rivers, he added.

'Yashasvi and Jwala sir told me to start cricket in Tripura': Tejasvi Jaiswal
Digital Desk | New Delhi, Sep 30 (IANS) Star India batter Yashasvi Jaiswal's brother, Tejasvi, feels extremely proud of his brother for having made it big for India. And the boy has made it big today, with Yashasvi being a Test regular, smashing one record after the other, while he is also the back-up opener in ODIs for India and is in line to board the plane to Africa for the 2027 ODI World Cup, apart from having turned heads with his IPL and T20I batting. Tejasvi, 29, is extremely proud of his brother having made it big. I feel very proud that my brother is playing for India. It is everyone's dream. I feel very good, Tejasvi told IANS. December 6, 2025 stands as a strong coincidence between the two brothers. It was the same day when Yashasvi scored his maiden ODI hundred against South Africa in Visakhapatnam, and Tejasvi hit his maiden T20 fifty for Tripura. My parents were very happy that both their sons played well that day. It was a good feeling for us, he said. A young Tejasvi had once sacrificed his dream to play cricket to support Yashasvi to make it big one day. He worked as a salesman in Delhi to support Yashasvi to continue his dream, Tejasvi had said in an interview with sports magazine. However, he got a second wind in his career once Yashasvi was largely settled. And now he has played all formats for Tripura in the domestic circuit. It was Yashasvi and coach Jwala Singh who suggested Tejasvi play for Tripura, and he has played five First-class matches, eight List A games and four T20s for the state with fifties in each of the three formats in the limited games that he has been part of. Yashasvi and Jwala sir (their coach) told me to go to Tripura and start playing cricket again. So I started from there, he added. Tejasvi is currently playing in the Uttarakhand Premier League and has scored 117 runs in four matches for Tehri Titans with a recent blistering 19-ball 50. He is their 'icon player' and has a challenging role of batting in the top and also in the middle order, as he has to adjust to different game conditions and types of bowlers. He reflected on batting in different positions and also hailed the UPL for providing opportunities to the youngsters. I have played in the middle order as well as in the top order. I don't care about the order. I care about how I can win the match, how I can play an impactful innings, he said. It is a very important league. Thanks to the CAU (Cricket Association of Uttarakhand) for organising it. It is a very good opportunity for the youngsters here and for us as well to perform well and move forward, he said. Speaking on the time when he returned to cricket after being away for years to support his brother and family, Tejasvi stated that returning was not much of a challenge; rather he was happy to play the sport once again. It was not very challenging. When I got a chance to come back, I was very happy that I was getting to play cricket again. I was very happy that I was getting to play cricket again, he added. Tejasvi has now made a switch to Uttarakhand from Tripura and is expected to feature in the domestic circuit for them in the times to come. Playing in the 50-over Gold Cup in Uttarakhand, he scored two centuries too. I came to Uttarakhand to play the Gold Cup so that I get selected to play from here. I had a good performance (in the Gold Cup), and I am now also playing in the UPL. I want to do well in the UPL and let's see what happens next, he said.
