Andhra Pradesh Sees Renewed Investor Interest, Says Minister Bharath

Kurnool: Industry minister T.G. Bharath expressed optimism about a surge in industrial investment in the state.

Speaking at the inauguration of a hostel in Kurnool on Sunday, Bharath credited Chief Minister Chandrababu Naidu and Minister Lokesh for their faith in attracting investments.

Bharath blamed the previous government's leadership for the state's sluggish industrial growth in the past five years. However, he pointed to a renewed interest from potential investors since the current administration took office. Discussions are reportedly underway to finalise these deals.

The minister also pledged to focus on bringing industries to Kurnool's designated industrial zone. He highlighted his own TGV group's long history of public service, assuring its continuation.

In a separate address, former Rajya Sabha member T.G. Venkatesh spoke about his efforts to empower the Arya Vysya community. He urged for continued community unity, transcending political differences.
