A day before taking oath as the Chief Minister of Andhra Pradesh, Telugu Desam Party chief N Chandrababu Naidu made a significant announcement regarding the state capital. In a joint meeting with TDP, BJP, and Janasena legislators, Naidu declared that Amaravati would be the sole capital of Andhra Pradesh. This decision comes as a reversal of the previous proposal for three capitals in the state. He emphasized that under his government, there would be no games played with multiple capitals, asserting Amaravati as the definitive capital city.
Chandrababu Naidu’s history with Amaravati as the capital dates back to his tenure as the first Chief Minister of bifurcated Andhra Pradesh between 2014 and 2019. Despite setbacks in 2019 when Y S Jagan Mohan Reddy-led YSRCP came to power and advocated for three capitals, Naidu’s recent electoral victory has reignited hopes for the Amaravati capital city project. The NDA alliance, comprising TDP, BJP, and Janasena, secured a significant majority in the recent Lok Sabha and Assembly elections, bolstering Amaravati’s status as the capital.
The announcement made at the Legislative Assembly meeting sets the tone for Chandrababu Naidu’s upcoming term as Chief Minister. With a renewed focus on Amaravati as the singular capital, Naidu aims to steer the state towards development and progress. As the political landscape in Andhra Pradesh undergoes a significant shift, Naidu’s unequivocal stance on Amaravati sends a clear message of stability and continuity in governance.
