On Monday, District Collector Himanshu Shukla presented a cheque for ₹80,000 as financial support to Eddula Kalyani, a woman entrepreneur hailing from Jangalakandriga village in Muthukur mandal of SPSR Nellore district, at the PGRS programme held at Thikkana Pranganam near the Collectorate. Shukla expressed that the Palle Veekshana programme, which involves understanding local people's issues and supporting their aspirations, goes beyond merely listening to public grievances.

The program aims to identify and encourage talent, innovative ideas, and small-scale business ventures of women in rural areas. Shukla highlighted Kalyani's endeavours, stating that she not only creates self-employment but also aims to expand her business of producing compost fertiliser beneficial to farmers. Kalyani expressed her delight upon receiving the financial assistance and thanked the Collector. DRDA Project Director Nagarajakumari was also present on the occasion.
