Andhra Pradesh to bring out Vision Document 2047 on October 2, align with Centre’s Viksit Bharat 2047

Chief Minister N. Chandrababu Naidu to unveil 'Vision Document 2047' for State development, emphasising poverty eradication and infrastructure growth.

Chief Minister N. Chandrababu Naidu on Monday announced that the State government will release a ‘Vision Document 2047’, aimed at eradicating poverty and ensuring the overall development of the State, on October 2.

Addressing the NDA government’s first Collectors’ Conference at the Secretariat, he explained that this Vision Document would be in tandem with Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s ‘Vision Viksit Bharat 2047’.

Mr. Chandrababu Naidu instructed the district collectors to also bring out vision documents 2047 for their districts and the mandals therein. He observed that these district-level vision documents would become a provisional document for the development of the districts.

Recalling his efforts for Vision 2020, which began in the 90s during his first tenure as the Chief Minister of the united Andhra Pradesh, Mr. Chandrababu Naidu said it laid the road for the development of Information Technology and Outer Ring Road (ORR) in Hyderabad and many more infrastructure projects that created wealth.

Saying that Andhra Pradesh currently faces different challenges, Mr. Chandrababu Naidu said the State could be developed with the commitment, dedication and innovative ideas of the bureaucracy.

Before 2019, IAS officers from the State were known as the best in the country, but their image was tarnished during the regime of former Chief Minister Y.S. Jagan Mohan Reddy and his “dictatorial” attitude, he said.

The Chief Minister advised the district collectors to adopt a humanitarian approach while addressing public concerns, work target oriented and strive to increase the GSDP at district and mandal levels.
