    He raised concerns about inefficiencies in the current sand management system. The Chief Minister pointed out that while construction activities are growing every year, government revenues from sand are not satisfactory. At the same time, consumers are paying high prices for sand. He directed officials to ensure sand is affordable for the public while also increasing government income.

    CM Reddy also emphasized the need to crack down on the sand mafia. He instructed officials to enforce strict measures to stop illegal sand activities. Additionally, he questioned the fines collected from major and minor mineral mines. He called for a detailed study of the rules governing these minerals, with findings to be submitted in a report within two weeks.

    This initiative aims to make the sand supply system more transparent, efficient, and affordable. It is expected to help with the smooth construction of Indiramma houses and address long-standing problems in the sector.
