The CRDA will allocate 35 acres for the Birla Institute of Technology and Sciences (BITS) campus in Amaravati. BITS has requested a site near the Seed Access Road and Sri Venkateswara Swamy Temple. It has proposed that its buildings will also be built in the temple model.
More universities and prestigious educational institutions are ready to come to the capital. The CRDA has considered giving space to BITS in the Nelapadu and Inavol areas in the capital Amaravati, where sites have been allocated to educational institutions like SRM, VIT and Amrutha. It is ready to give 50 to 100 acres there.
But since BITS requested a site near the Seed Access Road, it has clarified that it can give only 35 acres there. XLRI is also preparing to start construction soon. The CRDA had allotted 50 acres of land at Inavolu for the institution in 2014-19. The same land will be given to the institution even now.
The Bar Council of India has already come forward to set up a law university in the capital. Between 2014-2019, the CRDA had allotted land to about 135 institutions in the capital. Among them were several central and public sector institutions.
At that time, the land was allotted as per the agreement to complete the construction within three years. All those allocations were technically cancelled after the deadline expired. Changes will be made in the process of renewing them.
Earlier, separate land was allotted to the offices of central government institutions, but now it is being proposed to set up all of them in a single building. At that time, 28 acres were allotted to the Central Public Works Department.
If necessary, the CRDA intends to expand it a little and build a huge complex through the CPWD and set up all the offices of the central government organizations in it. It is proposing to bring as many central government organizations as possible into one building and have the building constructed by the National Building Construction Corporation.
