VIJAYAWADA: The State government is all set to roll out one of its flagship programmes ‘Jagananna Palle Velugu’ on March 31 to transfer maintenance of LED street lights to gram panchayats as part of the decision of Chief Minister YS Jagan Mohan Reddy to make all government services available in villages and address the needs of people in less time.
The government wants to revamp the street lighting programme by ensuring that the non-glowing lights are restored in 48 hours of the receipt of complaints. The State government has issued orders through GO Ms No 11 to transfer the operation, repair and maintenance of energy efficient LED street lights project from EESL and NREDCAP to the village secretariats.
