Andhra Pradesh Chief Minister N Chandrababu Naidu has asserted that Amaravati will evolve into a world-class, future-ready capital and a growth engine for the state's economic growth.

With the Parliament passing the Andhra Pradesh Reorganisation (Amendment) Bill, 2026, providing legal backing for Amaravati as the only capital city of the state, all hurdles in its development have been crossed.

Naidu accused the previous government of attempting to derail Amaravati through 'systematic conspiracies' and accused the YSR Congress party leaders of questioning the capital's legitimacy despite Parliamentary approval.

The Chief Minister clarified that development would not be limited to the capital alone, with cities like Visakhapatnam and Tirupati being developed as regional growth hubs.

Naidu reiterated that Amaravati is envisioned as a 'people's capital' that will stand as a symbol of pride for both Andhra Pradesh and the nation.
