The State government is ready to give away valuable land to enhance the employment opportunities and development activity in the State, according to Chief Minister N. Chandrababu Naidu. He was speaking at the inauguration of the three-day 2nd AP Science Congress- 2016 organised by Andhra Pradesh Akademi of Sciences in the city on Monday.

Addressing the gathering of scientists, students and faculty, Mr. Naidu said the State government was ready to give away 50 acres for world class science museum at Tirupati. “Prime Minister Narendra Modi, who is going to inaugurate the national science congress at Tirupati’s SV University in January 3, 2017, will lay the foundation stone for the science museum.”

Calling upon students to think innovatively, Mr. Naidu said every school and university would be developed into incubation centres.
