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

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