Visakhapatnam: Tourism Minister M Srinivasa Rao said Chief Minister YS Jagan Mohan Reddy was setting an example by empowering women and helping them realise their dreams through implementation of various welfare schemes.
Taking part in the distribution of cheques issued as a part of the second phase of the YSR Aasara scheme in Bheemunipatnam constituency, the minister stressed on utilising the platform as the Chief Minister aims to uplift the poor.
