Andhra Pradesh Chief Minister N. Chandrababu Naidu announced that Amaravati will officially become the state's sole capital on June 2, 2024, following the passage of the Andhra Pradesh Reorganisation (Amendment) Bill. This development is seen as a pivotal moment, resolving uncertainties from the previous government led by Y. S. Jagan Mohan Reddy. The bill received unanimous support from the National Democratic Alliance (NDA), while the YSR Congress party opposed it, expressing concerns over the decision. Amaravati was envisioned as a world-class capital when it was first conceptualized in 2015, with plans to create a self-sustaining city that could rival Hyderabad. However, progress has been hampered by delays and political challenges, especially during the 2019 elections. The current government is now focused on revitalizing Amaravati with an infrastructure investment of approximately ₹60,000 crore (roughly $7.2 billion USD), which includes developing major road networks, a High Court, and residential facilities for officials. The revival plan is supported by financial institutions like HUDCO, the Asian Infrastructure Investment Bank, and the World Bank. With a vision for Amaravati to contribute to a $2.4 trillion economy by 2047, the government aims to ensure balanced regional development while meeting the challenges of swift execution and effective governance.
