Entire Country Supports Amaravati As Capital Except YSRCP: AP CM
Amaravati: Chief Minister N Chandrababu Naidu on Friday said that despite allegations of conspiracy by the opposition YSR Congress Party (YSRCP) P, the entire country supports the decision to designate Amaravati as the capital of Andhra Pradesh. Addressing a press conference, he asserted that after receiving the central government’s sovereign seal, no one can alter the status of the capital city in the future.
“They (YSRCP) wanted to destroy Amaravati, but we brought a law. Today, the entire country stands behind Amaravati. Overcoming all conspiracies, Amaravati emerged victorious. The dreams of five crore people have come true with the help of the Centre’s sovereign seal. In the future, no one will be able to change anything,” he said.
Naidu noted that there are 50 parties in both the Lok Sabha and the Rajya Sabha. “Despite ideological and personal differences and lack of direct connectivity with the capital of Andhra Pradesh, all of them supported the Amaravati Bill to protect the interests of the country.” he said.
Naidu attacked the opposition party, claiming that it had no sense of national interest and was not concerned about the progress of Andhra Pradesh. He expressed gratitude to Prime Minister Narendra Modi and Union Home Minister Amit Shah for the passage of the ‘Amaravati Bill’ in Parliament.
The Andhra Pradesh Reorganization (Amendment) Bill, 2026, which makes Amaravati the capital of the southern state, was passed by the Rajya Sabha on Thursday and the Lok Sabha on April 1.
