Amaravati's Revival: Hope Rises for Andhra Pradesh's Capital
Real Estate:The return of N Chandrababu Naidu as Chief Minister of Andhra Pradesh has sparked new hope for Amaravati, the state's capital city. Real estate agent Mehboob Khan is inundated with messages as land prices surge, with doctors, engineers, and others buying land at a rapid pace. The city, which was abandoned for five years, is now poised for a revival, with bulldozers clearing bushes and people crowding to buy land. Reviving Amaravati is a top priority for the new TDP government, with TD Janardhan, a founding member and political secretary of the party, echoing the commitment Naidu made on the eve of his swearing-in as CM on June 12 'Amaravati will be the capital of our state.'

Frequently Asked Questions

What is behind the land-buying frenzy in Amaravati?

The return of N Chandrababu Naidu as Chief Minister of Andhra Pradesh and the favourable political alignment with the central government.

What is the current state of Amaravati?

Amaravati is currently in a state of shambles, with under-construction buildings standing like forgotten dreams, covered in dense thickets.

What was the original plan for Amaravati?

Naidu envisioned Amaravati as India's equivalent to Singapore, with a plan to set aside 4,000 acres of developed land out of the total 55,000 acres for commercial use, aiming to generate revenue through this development.

What challenges did Naidu face during his previous term?

Major multinationals were reluctant to relocate from Hyderabad to Amaravati, and a $1 billion loan from the World Bank never materialised.
