Pawan Kalyan Inspects Revolutionary Road Project in Krishna District

27 Dec 2024 CW Team

Deputy Chief Minister Pawan Kalyan took a proactive role, personally inspecting the ongoing road construction project in the Kankipadu Mandal of Krishna district. This initiative, designed to improve transportation for around 21,000 residents, has dramatically upgraded the road between the Kanikapadu Bus Stand, Godavarru, and Royyuru, completing significant progress in just two months.

The project was triggered by a village festival that highlighted the poor condition of the Godavarru-Royyuru road, an issue raised by Penamaluru MLA Bode Prasad. In response, Kalyan allocated the necessary funds promptly, leading to the swift construction of a 5-kilometre stretch. This development has alleviated commuting challenges for residents, particularly those living in Kanikapadu, Royyuru, and Godavarru.

The Rs 3 crore project, supported by the National Rural Employment Guarantee Scheme (NREGS) and the State Disaster Response Fund (SDRF), is being carried out in three layers, with close supervision to ensure quality. Kalyan stressed the importance of preparing a solid foundation for long-lasting results and maintaining high standards throughout the process. His attention to detail has not only addressed a longstanding issue but also reinforced the public's confidence in government responsiveness and accountability.
