In Amaravati, Chief Minister N. Chandrababu Naidu urged a large‑scale publicity campaign to explain the benefits of the recent GST rate cut across Andhra Pradesh. Addressing the legislature, he said the state government will organise 65,000 awareness meetings, deploy door-to-door outreach, and put up display boards showing post‑cut prices to clearly communicate how GST reductions translate into consumer savings.
Naidu underlined that the campaign must reach every household, village, and town, especially focusing on essential goods, medicines, household articles, and commodities frequently used by the public. He also asked ministers, MLAs, and officials to actively participate in the drive to ensure the message penetrates grassroots levels.
He noted that while the government may incur a revenue impact, the long-term gains in consumption, trust, and strengthened citizen confidence will justify the push. This initiative also ties into broader goals like Make in India, bolstering local industry, and encouraging domestic production by reducing the tax burden.
District collectors have been instructed to coordinate the campaign till Diwali, using exhibitions, rallies, and awareness programmes. The move is seen as a strategic step in bridging policy intent and public perception — ensuring that the GST rate cut is understood, welcomed, and felt across Andhra Pradesh’s population.
