Vijayawada: Chief Minister Nara Chandrababu Naidu has called upon the people’s representatives to share their “good ideas” in the legislature to have fruitful discussions.

Naidu addressed the MLAs and MLCs at an orientation programme on the state Budget on the premises of the Legislature Complex on Tuesday. Assembly Speaker Ayyanna Patrudu presided over the programme.

He advised the legislators to study every bill and the policies introduced by the government. He said, “I want to make the legislators partners in public governance. People have high expectations on us and we have to discuss their problems in the legislature and resolve the issues.”

The CM said he was elected as an MLA for nine consecutive terms so far. In the recently held elections, the TDP, Jana Sena and BJP contested together and won the elections. Several new persons were elected as MLAs this time.

He said that, earlier, “We had sent some MLAs abroad to study how they achieved fast economic growth. Legislators must develop a curiosity to learn subjects and various issues. Such a tendency was missing among the legislators.”

Naidu said legislators must know what was happening in various departments. Else, they might not be able to reach several benefits to his or her constituency. They must go through the speeches made in earlier sessions by NT Rama Rao and freedom fighter Puchapalli Sundarayya. These, he said, were being brought out in the form of books.

He noted that the Centre was conducting a training programme for the MPs. “We would use the innovative ideas and knowledge shared in the legislature by the people’s representatives in the formulation of policies. You all must study the allocations made in the Union Budget.”

The CM asked the MLAs not to take the ongoing budget sessions in a lighter manner assuming that the opposition party was not attending them. You must attend the sessions without fail as you are accountable to the people.”

He asked the legislators to express their opinion on Vision-2047 in order to have a good discussion and to resolve the problems of the people, in both the assembly and council.
