On Friday, Pannala Srinivas Reddy approached the Chief Minister’s Office at Pragathi Bhavan and handed over the cheque for Rs 10,000 to Chief Minister Chandrashekhar Rao.

He informed that his agricultural income has increased considerably due to assured irrigation water supply to his farm lands.

Appreciating his gesture, Chief Minister Chandrashekhar Rao welcomed that several youngsters were giving up their jobs and taking up agriculture for their livelihood. “They are also cultivating commercial crops through innovative methods and increased their income levels significantly. These youth are not only self-employed, but also providing employment to a few more families,” he said.

He appreciated Srinivas Reddy for volunteering to contribute to the CMRF and hoped that his achievements will inspire many other youngsters.
