VIJAYAWADA: Chief Minister Nara Chandrababu Naidu has said the construction sector plays a pivotal role in the development of Andhra Pradesh as about 40 lakh families are dependent on it for their livelihood.
Speaking after inaugurating NAREDCO’s 12th Property Show at Chebrolu Hanumaiah Company on Friday, he highlighted the government’s efforts to rejuvenate the construction sector under the Build AP initiative, which he described as a continuous process, essential for the State’s economic development.
He asserted that the government has taken significant measures to support the construction sector, including the provision of free sand, an important raw material. “People have the right to demand access to free sand, and the government has simplified the building regulations to expedite the plan approvals,” he said.
