Minister for Industries and Information Technology Gudivada Amarnath has ridiculed the statements of former Chief Minister N. Chandrababu Naidu and other Telugu Desam Party (TDP) leaders that the foundation stone for the Bhogapuram international airport and Adani Data Centre have already been laid during the TDP term.
Addressing the media here on Tuesday, Mr. Amarnath said that Mr. Naidu had laid the stone for the airport on February 15, 2019, days ahead of the issuance of the election notification.
Land acquisition for the airport project had not been done, and the extent proposed was under litigation, Mr. Amarnath alleged. Similarly, Mr. Naidu had laid the stone for the Ramayapatnam port too without obtaining the mandatory approvals, the Minister said.
