Vijayawada, July 19 (UNI) Andhra Pradesh Chief Minister Y S Jagan Mohan Reddy, on Tuesday, credited Rs 137 crore into the accounts of 3,39,096 beneficiaries who were left out from receiving the benefits of welfare schemes and also provided fresh pension, Arogyasri, and ration cards to 3.10 lakh families.
Speaking on the occasion, the Chief Minister said that his government is truly committed to the welfare of the poor unlike the previous one, where people used to wait and run from pillar to post to avail welfare schemes. He said that the government brought this initiative to provide welfare schemes for those who are eligible and have not availed the benefits, twice every year.
The intention is to extend the welfare schemes to every eligible person in the State, he said, adding that the situation has changed since the inception of the YSRCP Government, and the benefits of the schemes are being delivered right at the doorstep of the beneficiaries, he asserted.
