The Andhra Pradesh government on Monday informed the High Court through an affidavit that various bona fide steps had been taken for the development of Amaravati as the capital city in compliance with the judgment dated March 3, 2022, and on that ground, prayed for dismissal of the contempt cases filed by some aggrieved farmers.
Besides, the Capital Region Development Authority (CRDA) filed a status report on the implementation of the High Court order in the batch of writ petitions that challenged the proposed trifurcation of the capital to ensure decentralisation of administration.
In that report, the CRDA furnished a detailed account of the Land Pooling Scheme (LPS) and trunk infrastructure works in progress, mobilisation of funds for executing those works, and social and economic development activities undertaken in the last four-and- a-half months.
