The Kadapa district collector, Chevuru Harikiran, has directed officials to finish all preparations for Chief Minister YS Jagan Mohan Reddy's visit to the district on July 8 and 9.

On Saturday, he met with district officials and Superintendent of Police Karur Karunapathi Nagendra Kumar Anburan to review arrangements.

Despite a significant decrease in coronavirus cases in the district, the Collector advised officials to exercise caution when implementing the SoP because the Chief Minister would interact with the public, including speaking at a public meeting in the Pulivendula and Badvel constituencies.
