Rotary Encoder on 20x4 LCD with pushbutton digit select and other features

I don't understand why you "and" PortA with decimal 48. Please explain

I originally had encoder on pins 4,5 . and missed fixing that line when I moved re pins to 5,6
it only sets re initial state so after first move its not important , the first move could be in error though
I should "and" PortA with decimal 96. for those pins

I caught that earlier and made the changes then but it still didn't work. Here is my schematic:
Hope its not too big. If too small, I provided an image attachment.
