Collectors’ conference to focus on law and order
The twoday Collectors conference has been deferred by a day and it will now be conducted on October 25 and 26 The review of police department has been advanced from the concluding session on the second day to the first session on the second day
Amaravati: The two-day Collectors conference has been deferred by a day and it will now be conducted on October 25 and 26. The review of police department has been advanced from the concluding session on the second day to the first session on the second day.
Generally, police department review will be organised at the end of the two-day Collectors’ Conference. But this time, Chief Minister N Chandrababu Naidu directed officials to give more priority to law and order and hence it has been proposed to conduct the meeting
during the first session on the second day.
This meeting has assumed significance as it will be the first such meeting to be convened by Chief Minister N Chandrababu with higher police officials after the Maoists gunned down Araku MLA Kidari Sarveswara Rao and former MLA Siveri Soma in the Vizag Agency.
The Maoists also warned another TDP MLA Giddi Eswari, the leader who defected to TDP from the YSRCP. Maoists released the warning letter against Eswari by demanding that she should share the wealth she had amassed with the tribal people in her Assembly constituency.
They also warned her that if she would not distribute her wealth, then she would also face the same consequences like Sarveswara Rao and Soma.
With the Maoists again beginning to show their presence in Andhra Pradesh, the State police department entered into a formal agreement with Odisha police to share sensitive information on real time basis between the two departments regarding movement and presence of Maoists.
A senior police official informed that all these issues will be discussed during the Chief Minister’s review meeting on Law and Order with the Police Department.
Chandrababu Naidu said that he would conduct the Collectors’ conference every month, in view of the latest socio-economic and political developments in the State.
The Chief Minister is keen to ensure completion of ongoing projects and provide maximum benefits to the public through State government’s welfare schemes.
Since, the current TDP government has just around six months to complete its full tenure, Chandrababu Naidu has to fulfill all his promises made to people within this short period.
He will also discuss on the Grama Darsini and Grama Vikasam during the conference. He is reportedly not satisfied with the progress of the programme.
Naidu is of the view that both officials and politicians are not actively participating in this programme. This is also the first Collectors’ conference to be held after Anil Chandra Punetha took charge as the Chief Secretary and R P Thakur as the Director General of Police.
