Pointing out that political parties have earlier treated minorities as vote banks, the Minister said Chief Minister K Chandrasekhar Rao took several bold decisions for the welfare of the minorities. The State administration under Chandrashekhar Rao was the most effective one and a model for other states in the country, he said.

Jagdish Reddy said people in other states were keen on having similar governance in their States too since the TRS government was top in the country in implementation of welfare schemes and developmental programmes.

District Collector Prashant Jeevan Patil, Rajya Sabha member Badugula Lingaiah Yadav, MLC Tera Chinnapa Reddy, district Rythu Bandhu committee president Ramchandra Naik and others were also present.
