Naidu also announced a Tribal Health Infrastructure Completion Mission with an outlay of Rs 250 crore, plans for a common education centre for tribal students, and an agreement with IIT Madras to support tribal education. The government is encouraging coffee and pepper cultivation to boost tribal incomes and plans to bring Godavari water to India — Anakapalli via the Polavaram Left Main Canal.
