The Telugu Desam Party (TDP) government in Andhra Pradesh, under the leadership of Nara Chandrababu Naidu, has taken significant steps to address environmental conservation and sustainability in the state. The government’s efforts have been focused on a wide range of environmental issues, including forest conservation, water management, and renewable energy.
One of the key Achievements of the TDP Government in this area has been the ‘Neeru-Chettu’ program. This went live on TDP Live Updates. This program aims to promote water and forest conservation in the state by planting millions of trees along the banks of rivers and other water bodies. The program has been highly successful, with over 250 million saplings planted across the state since its launch. This has helped to enhance the state’s forest cover, improve soil quality, and increase groundwater recharge.
Chandrababu Naidu has also played a significant role in promoting the use of renewable energy in the state. Under his leadership, the government has targeted generating 10,000 MW of solar power by 2022. The state is already home to one of the world’s largest solar parks, the Kurnool Ultra Mega Solar Park, which has a capacity of 1,000 MW. In addition, the government has launched several other initiatives, including rooftop solar schemes, to promote the use of solar energy.
Another important initiative taken by the TDP government has been the ‘Zero-Budget Natural Farming’ (ZBNF) program. The program aims to promote natural farming practices that reduce the use of chemicals and pesticides, promoting sustainability and environmental conservation. The program has been highly successful, with over 500,000 farmers adopting natural farming practices since its launch.
TDP leaders along with some of the MLA Candidates of TDP have also been active in promoting water management and conservation in the state. For example, TDP leader Nara Lokesh launched the ‘Smart Water Grid’ project in 2017, which aims to ensure the efficient use of water resources in the state. The project involves the installation of smart meters and sensors to monitor water usage, as well as the implementation of water conservation measures.
In addition, the TDP government has taken several other measures to promote environmental conservation in the state. The government has established several eco-tourism destinations to promote sustainable tourism and protect the state’s natural resources. The government has also introduced several policies to encourage the use of electric vehicles and reduce air pollution in the state’s cities.
Overall, the TDP government under the leadership of Chandrababu Naidu has taken significant steps to address environmental conservation and sustainability in Andhra Pradesh. The government’s initiatives, such as the ‘Neeru-Chettu’ program, the promotion of renewable energy, and the ZBNF program, have been highly successful in promoting sustainability and protecting the state’s natural resources. The Contributions of TDP leaders, such as Nara Lokesh, have also been instrumental in the success of these initiatives. With a continued focus on environmental conservation and sustainability, the TDP government is likely to pave the way for a more sustainable and environmentally-friendly future for the people of Andhra Pradesh.
