As per the directions of MEPMA Mission Director, Smt. Vakati Karuna, I.A.S., a training program on the usage of the “Mana Dabbulu Mana Lekkalu” (MDML) app and mobile bookkeeping for field staff and TOTs was conducted.

The training was held at the SERP Head Office, Vijayawada, on 23rd February 2026, under the chairmanship of Additional Mission Director, Shri K. Naga Venkateswara Rao. The MDML app, developed by the Government of Andhra Pradesh under the MEPMA initiative, enables SHG members to transparently record and review their monthly financial and non-financial transactions directly on their mobile phones. Any discrepancies can be reported and corrected through the voice message grievance feature. As per the Mission Director’s instructions, experienced SHG members, bookkeepers, and RPs from each district were selected as TOTs, along with IT Anchor Persons and TE-IBs, to attend this training.

This included app field testing, issue resolution, demo sessions, finalization, TOT training, and preparation of district/ULB-wise action plans. Furthermore, SPMU officials from MEPMA headquarters were allotted districts to oversee and monitor the accurate uploading of SHG transaction data by 15th April 2026.
