We are telling YCP supporters the same thing. We see development beyond politics. It is not about the survival of any party, but the systems should survive, the villages should improve, and the lives of the people should improve. After taking charge of the Panchayat Raj Department, I have taken steps to ensure that the necessary funds are also provided to the YCP-supported panchayats," Deputy Chief Minister and Panchayat Raj Minister Pawan Kalyan clarified. He emphasized that his government's goal is to develop every village regardless of politics. He was addressing a gathering held after launching the "Adavitalli Bata 2.0" program in Kakavada village in Rampachodavaram constituency of Polavaram district on Sunday. He said that after taking charge, funds have also been released to the YCP-supported panchayats and that the welfare of the people is important to them.

On this occasion, Pawan Kalyan announced that 2,569 development works have been initiated with an estimated cost of Rs. 2,052 crore. He explained that 1,976 kilometers of roads and 45 bridges will be constructed for 1,341 tribal settlements through this scheme. He strongly criticized the previous YSRCP government for completely neglecting the development of tribal villages and misusing hundreds of crores of rupees of funds that should have been used to meet public needs to paint party colors on government buildings and remove them. He said that roads could have been built for many tribal villages with the same funds.

Pawan Kalyan called on everyone to work together for the victory of the alliance candidates in the upcoming local body elections. He reminded that the Jana Sainiks made many sacrifices for the future of the state in the 2024 general elections. He said that the sacrifices of the Jana Sainiks and brave women who came to the roads and fought even during Chandrababu's arrest should not be forgotten. In recognition of their sacrifices and respecting the alliance, he appealed to the alliance leaders to provide appropriate representation to Jana Sena workers in the upcoming local elections. He hoped that the local elections would ensure the future of the Jana Sainiks.

He said that the construction of roads in tribal areas is a very complicated process, and work like removing hills and cutting rocks would have to be done. He asked the local people to monitor the quality of the roads they are constructing. If there are any defects, they should bring them to his attention. He explained that measures like development of parks, promotion of tourism sector, and mobile connectivity are being taken to improve the livelihood of the tribals. He said that forest permissions will be expedited and the construction of cell towers and roads will be completed. On this occasion, orders were immediately issued for the construction of schools and Anganwadi centers requested by the local people. He advised the people that the days of intimidating people with arrogance of authority are gone and they should act responsibly with the courage to question mistakes.
