Govt committed to 3-capital plan: Botcha

The YSRC government is committed to setting up three capitals as part of its decentralised development plant to promote balanced regional development, reiterated Education Minister Botcha Satyanarayana. Visakhapatnam will emerge as the executive capital of the State soon, he said on Tuesday,

Responding to a query on Maha Padayatra of Amaravati farmers from Amaravati to Arasavalli, which was temporarily suspended, during a media conference, he alleged that there were not even 60 farmers among the 600 people allowed by the HC to undertake the padayatra.

“TDP activists are undertaking the padayatra in the guise of farmers. Hence, the Amaravati Parirakshana Samithi has suspended the padayatra when police insist on ID cards of participants,” he said. 

The public opinion is strongly in favour of three capitals for balanced regional development. The success of Visakha Garjana is an indication to it, Botcha added.
