Tableaux on Visakha Economic Region for Independence Day celebrations
The Collector asked the VMRDA to prepare a tableau on the region’s development vision, and departments to set up 20 stalls; personnel from the police, the NCC, the CRPF and the Navy will take part in the Guard of Honour
Visakhapatnam District Collector M. Abhishikth Kishore instructed officials on Thursday (August 6, 2026) to thoroughly prepare Independence Day celebrations, emphasizing the district's growth, cultural heritage, and key government initiatives. Meeting with Joint Collector G. Vidyadhari and departmental representatives at the Collectorate, Kishore advocated for creative tableaux depicting the Visakha Economic Region concept and the city's future.
He directed the Visakhapatnam Metropolitan Region Development Authority (VMRDA) to create a special tableau representing the region's development vision. The tableaux should also showcase government programs in healthcare, education, industrial development, tourism, and civic works carried out by the Greater Visakhapatnam Municipal Corporation (GVMC).
Kishore stressed the importance of cultural programs in the Education Department, with at least 30 minutes dedicated to highlighting Visakhapatnam's culture and traditions, along with government initiatives. He requested the police, National Cadet Corps (NCC), Central Reserve Police Force (CRPF), and Indian Navy to participate in the Guard of Honour.
Officials were instructed to complete ground preparations, stage decoration, seating, and public address systems, as well as set up 20 stalls showcasing welfare and development measures from various departments. Kishore urged departments to finalize invitations, finalize protocol arrangements, and recommend deserving officials, employees, and institutions for State and district-level awards.
