People’s Participation to Achieve Zero Poverty

Greetings to all Telugu people across the world, to the residents of Telugu states, and to everyone celebrating the vibrant Sankranti festival. This cherished occasion brings families together, reminding us of our rich heritage and deep-rooted traditions. Let us strive to keep the spirit of Sankranti alive in every home, ensuring joy and prosperity for all.

True happiness comes when everyone around us thrives. To achieve this, we must bridge economic disparities and uplift the living standards of every individual. With this vision, we present the "Swarnandhra 2047 Vision", a roadmap based on ten guiding principles to position the Telugu community as a global leader. At its core lies our foremost goal: Zero Poverty, driven by the innovative P4 Policy (Public-Private-People Partnership).

Since the transformative reforms of 1995, the Telugu states have witnessed remarkable progress. Policies like P3 (Public-Private Partnership) created opportunities that elevated countless individuals from modest backgrounds to positions of leadership across the globe. Today, many Telugu people symbolise excellence and resilience worldwide.

However, progress has not reached everyone. Millions still struggle with poverty, facing gaps in education, healthcare, nutrition, and clean drinking water. These challenges demand urgent action.

Through the P4 Policy, we call on those who have achieved success to help uplift others. By mentoring and empowering the most vulnerable 20%, especially through education, skill development, and employment opportunities—we can build a self-reliant and thriving society. Sharing knowledge, technology, and resources with underprivileged sections will ignite lasting change.

Let us take inspiration from past initiatives where NRIs and industrialists revitalized villages, fuelled by love for their birthplace. Today, we must reignite that spirit and ensure no one is left behind. A society free from poverty is not just a dream—it is our shared responsibility.

This Sankranti, I urge you to join us in eradicating poverty. Government efforts alone cannot achieve this monumental task; it requires active participation from every individual. To encourage collaboration, we will launch a portal to gather your suggestions, ideas, and feedback on the P4 Policy over the next 30 days.

By lifting others, we add true value to our success. Let us come together to create a model of health, happiness, and progress in Andhra Pradesh, inspiring the Telugu community worldwide.

On this auspicious occasion, let us pledge to make Zero Poverty a reality. Together, we can transform lives and achieve unparalleled heights for our people and our state.
