Chief Minister Nara Chandrababu Naidu has said the state government would soon release a white paper on the status of the state capital. It would involve citations on the damage done to the structures that were under different stages of construction, he said. The government will prepare an action plan for Amaravati, with stress on the need for buildings there.
On Thursday, the Chief Minister visited different structures left unattended for five years by the previous government and later addressed the media near the CRDA camp office in Rayapudi. Naidu said he was yet to study how and where the lands in the capital area were mortgaged. Officers must mend their ways, he said.
Terming Amaravathi and Polavaram projects as centres for creating assets, Naidu regretted that both areas got ruined because of the wrong actions of the YSRC government. During his field visit, Naidu examined the constructions that were in ruins. The Chief Minister began his tour with a visit to the Praja Vedika in Undavalli that was razed by the YSRC government in 2019.
He proceeded to Uddandarayanipalem where Prime Minister Narendra Modi had laid the foundation stone for the capital. He offered prayers there and later visited the houses constructed for the MLAs and MLCs, then the houses built for the All India Service officers and High Court judges. Naidu also inspected the residential houses built for ministers, gazetted and non-gazetted officers, and the apartment complexes being built for the grade-fou.
