										<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Andhra Pradesh is gearing up for a greener future as Chief Minister N. Chandrababu Naidu orders a deep dive into reducing electric bus operational expenses, which stand at about 72 rupees per km. Speaking at a roads and highways review in Amaravati, he tasked officials with evaluating multiple models to achieve this goal.</p>
<p>Expansion of charging networks and battery standardization emerged as priority interventions. Naidu envisioned a gradual shift to AC electric buses across all fleets, blending luxury with eco-friendliness. Public awareness drives for e-cycles were also recommended to diversify transport options.</p>
<p>&#8216;Clean fuels cut costs and benefit citizens,&#8217; Naidu remarked, pointing to solar energy efficiencies that trimmed power costs by 1 rupee per unit. He demanded heightened focus on fuel optimization for superior, low-cost services.</p>
<p>On infrastructure, the CM mandated faster highway builds to link ports effectively and spur economic growth. Road maintenance cannot be neglected—strong, ongoing efforts are essential for the state&#8217;s 45,433 km network, with 10,238 km needing yearly attention. Potholes must be fixed promptly to ensure smooth travel.</p>
<p>Naidu&#8217;s directives paint a picture of integrated development: affordable electric mobility intertwined with robust roadways, promising enhanced connectivity and prosperity for Andhra Pradesh residents.</p>
