Vijayawada: Andhra Pradesh Chief Minister YS Jagan Mohan Reddy is going to celebrate his 50^th birthday among the students on Wednesday. On this occasion YS Jagan will distribute free tabs to eighth class students of Government schools and teachers at Edlapalli village in Tsundur mandal of Bapatla district.

The tabs, pre-loaded with Byju’s premium content, will be distributed to 5.18 lakh students.  It is envisaged for their smooth transition into CBSE mode and to face the competitive exams with an added advantage in the future. To overcome the issue of internet connectivity, the entire content of classes 8 and 9 is loaded in an SD card and will be made available to all the students.

Jagan has primarily focused on two aspects in the last three-and-a-half years, education and health. On various meetings, he has reiterated that education is the great asset that his Government is giving to the future of the State. He has been saying that English medium in Government schools is meant to better equip even the students from economically weaker sections, when they enter the global arena after their schooling and face challenges with self-confidence without any language issues.

Meanwhile, people across the State are prepared to celebrate the birthday of Jagan in a grand manner.  On Wednesday, the YSRC is all set to organise major service-oriented programmes, including sapling plantation, blood donation and food distribution, in all the 26 districts. The CM’s birthday celebrations had already begun in all segments on Monday.

Government Advisor (Public Affairs) Sajjala Ramakrishna Reddy said that the entire State has been waiting to celebrate Jagan’s birthday on a grand scale. Keeping this in view, one of the major initiatives taken is blood donation. We have launched a website, and with the collaboration of the Red Cross Society, we will continue to take up the noble initiative. Around 50K people have registered so far.
