The Praja Rajyam Party (PRP) was in favour of developing on non-agricultural lands and if it comes to power, it would return farm lands already acquired for SEZs to their rightful owners. PRP would have its own norms for SEZs which have become means to do real estate business, said PRP manifesto committee convener K.S.R. Murthy. Addressing a press conference in Kakinada on Thursday, he said his party would not acquire farm lands for SEZs even if it implied that industries have to set up their units on barren lands, where necessary infrastructure would be created instead of destroying fertile lands in the name of industrial development.
HEALTHCARE
PRP would develop government hospitals at par with private corporate hospitals by providing the required facilities irrespective of the financial burden entailed by them.
Development of primary health centres (PHCs) in the rural areas was also on top of the party’s agenda.
Payscales of government doctors would be increased
Doctors who have to put up mandatory service in the rural areas would be supported
PDS
Public distribution system would be streamlined and prices would be controlled through market intervention measures.
Proposal to supply some essential commodities at Rs.100 was being worked out.
EDUCATION
Education would be provided free of cost to all poor students, including those of the economically backward classes, from KG to PG.
Sholarships distributed to the eligible and other measures were being planned to achieve social justice.

PRP on Education
Sri Konidela Siva Sankara Vara Prasad studied Intermediate BiPC group in CSR Sarma College, Ongole in 1970-72.At that time for two years course his father might have spent not more than Rs 1000 -00towards his expenses.Today due to corporate managements a middle class family is spending nearly one lakh rupees for Two year inter course on one student.The expenses and strain on student is horrible.As a Junior Lecturer in Botany joined in service in 1969-70
in Govt jr College (,unfortunately not in CSR Sarma college Ongole to become his teacher)now retired ,I know how the average middle income family is in debts on these expenses. PRP views on Corporate Education must be spelt out.
Sir,
Let the corporate colleges continue...the point is that quality education will be provided in the govt colleges and the teachers / lecturers will be adequately motivated and rewarded to carry on thier duties in the government colleges.
Rgrds,
Chiru For Change
If the quality of education in the govt colleges is improved and the teachers / lectures work properly over there, then these corporate colleges will automatically collapse
