Andhra Pradesh Cabinet expansion on May 25: YSR

A day after assuming charge, Andhra Pradesh Chief Minister Y S Rajasekhara reddy today said the Cabinet would be expanded on May 25.
Participating in a meet-the-press programme, he said he would try to accommodate the partymen and give proper representation to various sections of people while undertaking the exercise.
Denying that people had expressed lack of confidence for many of his former cabinet colleagues, he said the poll results could not be construed so. So many factors, including local issues and the individual’s performance, were responsible for defeat of a particular party candidate in a constituency, he pointed out.
’’I am not too sure they will be accommodated in the Cabinet,’’ he said, adding that in consultation with the party, remedial measures would be taken to accommodate them suitably in the party.
The results showed that ’’people cannot be taken for granted.
Whether in power or not, one should be ready to do public service.’’ With people’s blessings and support, the Congress government would be able to implement with renewed vigour the developmental programmes and welfare schemes, including the irrigation initiative ’’Jalayagnam’’ to provide water for every acre of land in the state.
Despite economic slowdown, the state government would be able to mobilise the required financial resources for the projects, with the Centre agreeing to relax the provisions of the Fiscal Responsibility and Budget Management Act to facilitate borrowings for irrigation and other infrastructure projects.
