 Capacity Building Training for Every Government Employee in Andhra Pradesh
* CM Chandrababu Naidu Chairs Review on Planning, Swarna Andhra Vision, and GSDP
* Special Policy on Population Management to be Announced Soon
* P4 Foundation Constituted with CM as Chairman
Amaravati, May 7, 2025: Chief Minister N. Chandrababu Naidu highlighted the importance of capacity building at all levels of government to improve service delivery and administrative efficiency. “From a village-level worker to a secretary, capacity building is essential for everyone,” the Chief Minister stated during a high-level review on Planning, the Swarna Andhra Vision, and the Gross State Domestic Product (GSDP) at the Secretariat.

He said both online and offline training programs would enhance skillsets and efficiency among public servants. “From agriculture officers to secretaries, from constables to the DGP – everyone must undergo capacity building,” he noted. CM Chandrababu Naidu added, “I personally focus on continuous learning – I learn new things, understand emerging technologies, and explore how to bring reforms through tech-driven governance. Skill enhancement through training will yield results and improve the quality of governance.”

Vision Plans for All Constituencies by Next Month

With state, district, and mandal-level plans already in place under the Swarna Andhra Vision, constituency-specific vision plans are scheduled for completion by next month. Thematic reports will be ready by June, and sectoral roadmaps by September, according to officials. Core policies like Zero Poverty (P4) and Population Management will be embedded into the vision framework.

The statewide capacity building workshops being conducted across districts will conclude by May 9. Locations have been identified in 143 constituencies to set up Constituency Vision Action Plan Units. As part of the Zero Poverty P4 initiative, 1,118 mentors have adopted 15,315 ‘Golden Families’ across the state. To institutionalize this effort, the government is establishing the Swarna Andhra P4 Foundation, with the Chief Minister as Chairman. A 25-member General Body, an Executive Committee, and Empowered Teams will drive its mission.

Balanced Population Growth is the Goal

The state government is preparing to introduce a dedicated Population Management Policy with the objective of achieving population balance. Several decisions have already been taken to encourage population growth, including the removal of limits on maternity leave for women government employees with up to two children and lifting disqualification restrictions in local body elections for those with more than two children.

A comprehensive survey will be undertaken to understand the opportunities and challenges related to population trends, which will inform the final policy.

CM Congratulates Indian Army for ‘Operation Sindoor

The review meeting began with a discussion on ‘Operation Sindoor’, the recent military operation conducted by the Indian Army against terror bases. CM Chandrababu Naidu praised the swift response to the Pahalgam attack and commended Prime Minister Modi’s decisive leadership. “The Indian response has gained global support, which is a testament to the strength of PM Modi’s foreign policy,” he said. CM  described the execution of the anti-terror operation as “brilliant” and said that every Indian stands united in support of PM Modi and our armed forces.
