“The Swarna (golden) Andhra 2047 vision aims to transform Andhra Pradesh into a prosperous, inclusive and globally competitive economy by 2047, in alignment with the national goal of Viksit Bharat 2047,” said Naidu.
Governance reforms, transparent policies and a business-friendly ecosystem have enabled Andhra Pradesh to attract investments worth more than Rs 23 lakh crore over the past two years, paving the way for substantial employment generation and economic growth, said the Chief Minister.
Naidu highlighted Andhra Pradesh’s technology-led governance framework, including the Real Time Governance Society (RTGS), Artificial Intelligence-enabled analytics, real-time monitoring systems and predictive governance tools such as AWARE, saying these initiatives are improving administrative efficiency, enabling evidence-based decision-making and enhancing citizen service delivery.
Emphasising sustainable economic development, he urged states to focus on strengthening infrastructure, ensuring policy stability and expediting approvals and clearances rather than engaging in incentive-based competition to attract investments.
The CM reiterated the government’s commitment to ensuring every family has access to seven basic necessities, such as housing, sanitation, tap water, clean cooking fuel, electricity, digital connectivity and direct benefit transfers, as part of its inclusive development agenda.
Naidu also highlighted the Public-Private-People Partnership (P4) Margadarsi-Bangaru Kutumbam (MBK) 10-20 initiative, which encourages the top 10 per cent in the society to support the bottom 20 per cent through philanthropy, mentorship and community participation.
In the healthcare sector, Naidu said Andhra Pradesh is implementing Project ‘Sanjeevani’, a digitally connected healthcare ecosystem focused on preventive healthcare, integrated digital health records and improved access to quality medical services.
Highlighting workforce preparedness, he said the state is undertaking major education reforms through AI-enabled learning, industry-integrated higher education, flexible lifelong learning pathways and advanced skilling programmes in emerging fields such as AI and Quantum Technologies.
Drawing attention to Andhra Pradesh’s fertility rate of below 1.5, Naidu called for greater national focus on demographic sustainability and outlined the state’s Population Management Policy to address future workforce shortages, ageing-related challenges and long-term economic sustainability.
Reaffirming Andhra Pradesh’s commitment to cooperative federalism, the Chief Minister said the state would continue to work closely with the Government of India and NITI Aayog to achieve the shared vision of Viksit Bharat 2047 and ensure inclusive growth and prosperity for all citizens.
