The FY26 plan aims to disburse Rs 4.5 lakh crore under priority sector lending and over Rs 2 lakh crore under non-priority sector lending.
Naidu encouraged banks to exceed these targets.
Referring to long-term state initiatives such as the Swarna Andhra–2047 (golden Andhra) vision and various developmental goals for the next four years, Naidu appealed to the banking sector to offer full support.
Noting that several projects are in the pipeline across various sectors, he called on bankers to provide the required financial backing.
