Municipal Administration Minister Dr. P. Narayana has revealed that works in the Amaravati capital region will begin from January next year. The Cabinet Sub-Committee on land allocation to various institutions in the Amaravati area met on Friday and took several key decisions.
Minister said that the sub-committee has approved the allocation of 20 acres for the establishment of a medical college along with the ESI Hospital. He said that 5 acres have been allocated to the Central Institute of Tools and Design and 0.8 acres have been allocated to the Indira Gandhi National Open University. Moreover, 15 acres have been allocated to the BasavaTarakam Cancer Institute.
He said that 5 acres have been allocated to the L&T (Larsen and Toubro) Skill Training Institute and 10 acres have been allocated to the Brahmakumari Education Society. It has given full approval to the 25 acres previously allocated to TTD. The land allocation process will be completed by next month, he added.
Minister Narayana clarified on this occasion that a policy will be prepared on the issue of prices. He said that the tender process for the construction of 360 kilometers of trunk roads and the remaining towers will be completed by the end of this December. He said that the deadline for several institutions allocated during the previous TDP government has been extended once again.
Dr Narayana said that lands were given to 131 people in the past and that they are also giving lands to new people. He explained that lands are being given to those who were given lands in the past at the same prices as then and that a policy will be made on the issue of prices.
He recalled how YS Jaganmohan Reddy regime shelved Amaravati capital works in the name of three capitals, but it has finally regained its former glory with the return of the TDP-led coalition government in the state. Not only construction in the capital, but the construction of the Polavaram project, the lifeblood of Andhra Pradesh, has also gained momentum, he added.
