YSR Congress president Mr Y.S. Jagan Mohan Reddy promised to implement a series of welfare measures for the people of the state if his party is elected to power in the next assembly elections.
Addressing leaders and activists at his party’s first plenary at Idupulapaya in Kadapa district on Friday, Jagan said he would bring the moon to the earth to turn the state into a welfare state once he becomes the chief minister of the state. The plenary coincided with the 62nd birth anniversary of his father YSR.
In addition to bringing back the welfare schemes implemented by his late father, Jagan also promised to introduce new welfare measures for the benefit of the poor people in the state. Some of the promises Jagan made to people on the occasion are given below:
*30 kg rice per month at Rs 2 per kilo

* Construction of 10 lakh houses for the poor every year.
