On 26th September 2023, APAL and the APAL’s state committee in Andhra Pradesh have submitted a memorandum regarding the construction of houses that were damaged and built a long time ago. The Chairman of the Legislative Council, Mr. Koye Moshenu Raju, requested the State Housing Minister, Mr. Jogi Ramesh, to take necessary measures to build new houses for the leprosy patients in Bhimavaram Leprosy Colony as the current houses are in a dilapidated condition.
In response to this, the Minister assured that he would take immediate action to grant new houses to the people in the Leprosy Colony.
APAL want to express our gratitude to the Government authorities for their invaluable services to the persons affected by leprosy; would also like to give a special thanks to Mr. Prakash Done, Working President of the state committee in Andhra Pradesh, and Mr. Veerraju, colony leader, for their contribution to the welfare of the leprosy community. Their efforts have not gone unnoticed, and they have truly made a difference in the lives of those affected by this disease.
