Speaking at a public gathering, he emphasised the State government's commitment to eliminating the use of Doli (makeshift stretchers) in remote tribal hamlets by ensuring proper road connectivity. "I will stand with tribals in their struggles and losses. Eradicating ganja cultivation in the district is our mission," he declared.

Pawan Kalyan said the government has revised the eligibility criteria under the Pradhan Mantri Gram Sadak Yojana (PMGSY) to include villages with a population of 200, down from the earlier limit of 250, to improve connectivity. "This change was made possible due to discussions between Chief Minister N Chandrababu Naidu and Prime Minister Narendra Modi," he mentioned.
