AP TDP State Chief thanks Anand Mahindra for showcasing Gangavaram Beach

Vijayawada, Oct 26 (UNI) Telugu Desam Party State President Palla Srinivasa Rao has thanked noted industrialist Anand Mahindra for bringing the scenic beauty of Gangavaram Beach to the attention of a wider global audience.
In a release here on Monday, Srinivasa Rao said such initiatives would help Visakhapatnam’s natural attractions gain international recognition and lend further impetus to Chief Minister Nara Chandrababu Naidu’s vision of transforming the city into a world-class urban centre by integrating its natural assets with modern technology.
Anand Mahindra had recently appreciated the Gangavaram beach as a lovely tourism attraction in a social media post.
Minister Nara Lokesh’s efforts to expand the IT, electronics, data centre and other technology sectors were opening up new opportunities for Visakhapatnam’s future, Srinivasa Rao highlighted, adding that Visakhapatnam’s hills, coastline and rocky landscapes were among its greatest natural assets, while the city also offered considerable potential for the rapid expansion of technology-driven industries.
The Naidu government’s objective was to develop Visakhapatnam as a city where nature and progress went hand in hand and establish it as the ‘San Francisco of the East’, he said and maintained that the Naidu government was pursuing a planned approach to transform Visakhapatnam into an internationally recognised city.
Under Chief Minister Chandrababu Naidu’s leadership, the government was working to attract major investments and global institutions, creating fresh opportunities for North Andhra, he revealed and cited the allocation of land for the Visakhapatnam Railway Zone office and the progress of related works, the Centre’s special financial assistance of Rs 20,000 crore for Visakhapatnam Steel Plant, and the acceleration of Bhogapuram Airport works as significant steps.
The TDP State Chief highlighted that progress was being made towards bringing 30 TMC of water to the erstwhile Visakhapatnam district through the Polavaram Left Main Canal. Minister Nara Lokesh was taking up a special initiative to develop Visakhapatnam as a major hub for IT, technology and data centres.
