**Andhra Pradesh Implements Expanded School Aid Scheme, Celebrates New School Opening**

VIZIANAGARAM, Andhra Pradesh – August 3, 2025 – The Andhra Pradesh government is celebrating the effective implementation of the “Thalliki Vandanam” scheme, providing ₹15,000 to mothers of school-going children, as well as the opening of a newly constructed primary school in Pusapatirega, Vizianagaram district.

Minister for Micro, Small and Medium Enterprises (MSME) and NRI Affairs, Kondapalli Srinivas, emphasized the government’s commitment to fulfilling its pre-election promises, highlighting that the “Thalliki Vandanam” scheme has been expanded to cover *all* eligible children in a family, a departure from the previous YSRCP government’s “Amma Vodi” scheme which supported only one child per family. He dismissed accusations leveled by the YSRCP as baseless.

Home Minister V. Anitha, who jointly inaugurated the new school with Minister Srinivas, expressed gratitude to the Nuclear Power Corporation of India Limited for providing funds for the construction. She urged other companies to contribute to developmental activities in Vizianagaram and other districts through Corporate Social Responsibility (CSR) funds.

The event underscores the state government’s focus on education and its commitment to social welfare programs.
