The Andhra Pradesh government has issued orders to restore pensions to the landless poor in the capital Amaravati. It has issued orders granting pensions to 1,575 families in the villages of the capital. It is known that the YSRCP government had canceled these pensions. The restoration of pensions was approved in the recent cabinet meeting.
With this, the Municipal Administration Department’s Principal Secretary Suresh Kumar issued orders granting pensions to the poor families who lost their livelihood due to the construction of the capital Amaravati. Based on the survey conducted in 2015, 1,575 families were identified as eligible for pensions.
On the other hand, the government has sanctioned funds to complete the pending work of the quarters of public representatives and officials in Nelapadu. It has granted administrative permissions by sanctioning funds of Rs 524.70 crore. 432 apartment units are being constructed in 18 towers here. On the other hand, construction work of prestigious institutions is going on rapidly in Amaravati.
Steps have been taken in Amaravati for the construction of Quantum Valley, which is a national landmark. It is known that the government has already allocated 50 acres of land next to the Seed Access Road between Uddandarayunipalem and Lingayapalem for this project, which will be undertaken at a cost of Rs. 4,000 crore. Soil tests have already been conducted at this site. Jungle clearance work has also been completed.
The E3 road will come in the area where N-10 connects. Designs are being prepared for the iconic building in Quantum Valley. While the designs are already ready, CM Chandrababu suggested several changes in them. With this, final improvements are being made to the design. After it is finalized, tenders will be called and the contractor will be selected.
The government has set a target to complete the building by January next year. The construction work of the Permanent Secretariat and the High Court is going on rapidly. A team of experts who visited Amaravati last month inspected the iconic towers and the foundations of the permanent High Court. Work is progressing as per their instructions.
Rods less than 16MM in size are being cleaned and reused. One additional rod has been added to the 5 damaged rods and strengthened and work has resumed. It was found that the iron rods that were not concreted on one side of the permanent High Court construction site were badly damaged. These were removed as they were stuck in the soil. They are being replaced as per the instructions of the team of experts to replace them with new ones.
