He stated, "CM Jagan has provided more than 3 lakh acres of land to the tribals during his four-and-a-half-year rule, whereas Chandrababu did not allocate even 40 thousand acres during his 14-year tenure. Additionally, the YSRCP government has already created 4.93 lakh government jobs, out of which 2.13 lakh are permanent positions, fulfilling the dreams of lakhs of people."
Speaker Tammineni Sitaram expressed, "CM Jagan ensured that poverty should not act as a barrier to access quality education & healthcare, and agricultural facilities. He diligently worked for us by implementing policies such as Amma Vodi, Vidya Deevena, Nadu-Nedu, and Jagananna Arogya Suraksha. Under CM Jagan's leadership, the state's GSDP has achieved double digits, marking the eradication of poverty and a marked improvement in living standards. In the past, during Chandrababu's tenure, the state lagged with an 8.7 lakh crore GSDP. However, under CM Jagan, Andhra Pradesh has surged to 13.17 lakh crore, reflecting a remarkable 50% growth. This has notably elevated the financial and purchasing power of the underprivileged."
