Get ready for some fantastic news from Andhra Pradesh! On Saturday, at Peddapuram in the Kakinada district, Andhra Pradesh Chief Minister N. Chandrababu Naidu took the stage amid a buzzing Swatch Andhra-Swarna Andhra cleanliness rally. But the big surprise was his powerful promise to the hardworking municipal workers. In a special announcement, Naidu declared that families of regular municipal workers who sadly lose their lives in accidents will receive a hefty ₹1 crore as life insurance. Not just that. Outsourced workers won’t be left behind — their families will get ₹20 lakh each. And if any worker faces permanent disability, the same insurance amounts will be given to them. How's that for some solid protection? But wait, the CM didn’t stop there! He also promised educational support for the children of these workers, with funds reaching up to ₹8 lakh. This means families can breathe easier knowing education is backed up too. Earlier that day, Naidu showed he’s not just about words. He rolled up his sleeves and helped collect solid waste alongside medical students and local residents. This colorful cleanliness rally wasn’t just a photo op; it brought the community together to clean up their streets as part of the lively Swatch Andhra-Swarna Andhra initiative. After the rally, the Chief Minister addressed the crowd at a public meeting. His message? A cleaner Andhra Pradesh and better safety nets for those who keep our cities sparkling and running smoothly. The vibe was high, the promises big, and the future, hopefully, brighter for municipal workers and their families. This campaign at Peddapuram showed how leaders and locals can join hands to push for a cleaner environment and a secure life for all workers. A big clap for AP’s Swatch Andhra-Swarna Andhra drive!
