Union Minister of State for Social Justice and Empowerment A. Narayanaswamy said on Wednesday that Amaravati had been recognised as the capital of Andhra Pradesh, and the State government should develop it with the cooperation of the Centre in an expeditious manner.
Addressing the media after inspecting work on the western bypass road at Gollapudi here, Mr. Narayanaswamy said the Centre facilitated the development of Amaravati because it was designated as the capital.
The State government should take steps for its speedy development, he suggested, while pointing out that the Centre wished to develop NTR and Guntur districts along with Amaravati.
