Healthcare

Three NABH certified free primary hospitals in Ramapuram, Kurnool and Nellore serve communities around Priya Cement's plants. Together, they provide clinical services, laboratory, pharmacy, X-ray, ECG, ambulance and observation facilities through a combined team of 63 medical and non-medical professionals.

Education

Three schools operate under the Pragnya Priya Foundation: Priya Educational Academy in Ramapuram, Priya Cement High School in Kurnool and Nellore Chandra Reddy High School. Together, they have 2,627 students and 111 teaching staff in 2026-27. All three schools achieve 100% Grade X pass results. Classrooms are equipped with 75-inch interactive flat panels and AI-enabled-learning content.

Community development

Priya Cement supports local infrastructure, drinking water access, skill development and rural development. Drinking water reaches five villages, benefiting 644 families. The Govardhan Goshala at both plant campuses maintains approximately 283 cattle and converts organic waste into natural farming inputs.

The Pragnya Priya Foundation

Pragnya Priya Foundation is a private non-profit organisation incorporated in 2012 and registered under Section 8 of the Companies Act, 2013, and Sections 12AA and 80G of the Income Tax Act, 1961.

"All humans deserve equal rights and opportunities in life."

The Foundation works to improve the lives of underprivileged families in remote areas of Andhra Pradesh and Telangana through education and primary healthcare.

Its community work has grown alongside Priya Cement's operations, from the establishment of Priya Educational Academy in Ramapuram in 1987 to healthcare initiatives launched in 2012 and the expansion of community programmes across Nellore and other surrounding areas.
