The Government of Andhra Pradesh, under the leadership of Chief Minister N. Chandrababu Naidu, launched a welfare initiative on August 23, 2025, during the Swachh Andhra–Swarna Andhra campaign in Peddapuram, Kakinada district. The scheme provides a ₹1 crore life insurance cover for municipal staff and a ₹20 lakh cover for outsourced workers in case of accidental death or permanent disability. Additionally, education assistance of up to ₹8 lakh will be offered for their children. This initiative not only ensures financial and educational support for vulnerable civic workers but also reflects the government’s vision of inclusive governance and its commitment to building “Swarna Andhra” (Golden Andhra Pradesh).
