At a meeting organised by Pulses Group, a health informatics and digital marketing firm, to explore growth opportunities in the district, he said that the establishment of industries for the promotion of tribal and agro-based products, and the promotion of marine products would generate economic activity in the district. Nellimarla MLA Badukonda Srinivasa Rao, economist Boda Ramakrishna, representatives of farmers’ associations Rongali Ramarao, Meesala Nageswara Rao, Kota Murthinaidu were among those present.
