Andhra Pradesh Reports 11.3% Growth Rate, Exceeds Telangana, Says CM Naidu
Andhra Pradesh Chief Minister N. Chandrababu Naidu reported an 11.3% Gross State Domestic Product growth rate for 2024-26, surpassing Telangana's 10.7%. He attributed this improvement to increased public investment, infrastructure development, and investor-friendly policies after a decline between 2019 and 2024. Naidu highlighted challenges post-bifurcation, including resource imbalances and infrastructure deficits, and noted a widening per capita income gap with Telangana. The government emphasized capital expenditure on key projects and secured significant investment proposals during its first two years in office.
