Visakhapatnam to Be Andhra Pradesh’s New Capital, Jagan Mohan Reddy appears to stick to three-capital strategy?

Andhra Pradesh Capital: Andhra Pradesh’s capital will be Visakhapatnam, and Chief Minister Jagan Mohan Reddy will move there “in the months to come,” he announced today. This is despite the High Court’s ruling last year that it cannot pass legislation for that; the other two capitals are Kurnool and the current capital Amaravati.

Shifting over to Visakhapatnam in the months

The YSRCP government of Mr. Reddy has appealed the case, which is currently before the Supreme Court. The claim about Visakhapatnam was made by Mr. Reddy, who has consistently favoured the coastal city as the Executive Capital while promoting an investment summit that will be held there. He has previously stated that he would start there.”Here I am, to invite you, to Visakhapatnam, which is going to be our capital in the days to come,” he said,announcing the world summit that will take place on March 3 and 4. He did not provide a timetable,but added, “I myself will be shifting over to Visakhapatnam in the months to come.”

Anticipation of a future economic boom

According to Mr. Reddy’s party, some individuals who were informed beforehand where the new capital would be located bought land there in anticipation of a future economic boom. The state government claimed in a submission to the Center that such individuals purchased more than 4,000 acres in 2014. While denying any wrongdoing, N Chandrababu Naidu had questioned why the YSRCP government was selling off the land it had originally purchased from farmers to erect a new capital. The AP Capital Region Development Authority’s choice to lease out the residential towers—built for government employees—to private companies was specifically criticised a few months ago by the Leader of the Opposition.
