He also assured the industrialists that the state government would provide them with better subsidies in the process of reconstruction of the state.
The Chief Minister, who is visiting North Andhra, had a virtual interaction with members of the National Council of the Confederation of Indian Industry (CII).
He appealed to CII representatives to become partners in the P4 (Public, Private, People's Partnership) policy.
The Chief Minister announced that a meeting with CII representatives will be organized in Visakhapatnam sometime this year.
He reiterated that his only objective is to build a poverty-free society. He told the CII representatives that the experience among the youth will be improved through a skills census after which the youth will get employment across the world. "The reforms may cause some political damage, but I am confident that they will certainly be of great help to the people," he said.
Naidu said that when he first became Chief Minister of combined Andhra Pradesh in 1995, the CII was a small organization which has now grown globally to influence all sectors of the world.
Noting that reforms in the power sector were first introduced in Andhra Pradesh in 1998, he said the Regulatory Commission was also formed for the first time in the country in Andhra Pradesh.
"We have introduced the first Emirates flight from Hyderabad to Dubai through the Open Sky policy and also laid the foundation for the Green Field airport in Hyderabad at that time. Bengaluru and Mumbai took up similar projects later," he said.
The Chief Minister stated that the public policy and welfare system should always be aimed at alleviating poverty.
"We should all work towards it," he added.
Stating that he has short, medium and long term policies for this, the Chief Minister sought advice on how to organize government programmes.
"Give us guidance and we will move forward on that path by creating opportunities," he said.
