: While proper inaugurations took place in the case of eight departments such as AP State Road Transport Corporation, Information and Public Relations and Tribal Welfare, in the other six they were symbolic.

“This is only the first ball of the match. It will take some time before the last ball is hit.

Ashok Babu, president of the AP NGOs Association, on Tuesday.
