YSRCP leaders celebrate Jagan’s birthday in Vizianagaram
YSR Congress Party leaders on Tuesday heaped praise on the government, stating that there was a ‘newfound hope among people of all sections in the State’.
Celebrations were held at the party office here to mark the 49th birthday of Chief Minister Y.S. Jagan Mohan Reddy. Vizianagaram MLA Kolagatla Veerabhadra Swamy cut a large birthday cake weighing 49 kg at the party’s zonal office. At another function, party MLC Penumatsa Suresh Babu and leaders Avanapu Vikram and Vijay distributed saris to the poor.

The Centre has rejected reports that the definition of the Aravalli hills was changed to permit large-scale mining, citing a Supreme Court-ordered freeze on new leases. It said a court-approved framework will bring over 90% of the Aravalli region under protected areas and strengthen safeguards against illegal mining. The clarification follows controversy over the “100-metre” criterion used to define hills across states.
