Madhavi and a few others laid foundation stone for various development works worth about ₹33 crore at Paderu in Visakhapatnam district on Tuesday.

Reviewing about the Manabadi Nadu Nedu works, she enquired about the progress. She asked Araku MLA Ch. Phalguna to have more drivers for the ambulances. She instructed the ITDA officials to ensure drinking water supply to all the tribals. She also added that the officials should check whether all the welfare programmes including Rythu Bharosa and a few others are reaching beneficiaries. She received several suggestions and representations from the local political representatives.
