Roads and Buildings Minister Komatireddy Venkat Reddy said that the old Assembly building, which is a heritage structure, will be restored to conduct Legislative Council sessions.
The Minister, who was speaking to the media after taking charge on Sunday, said that the old buildings of the Congress Legislature Party (CLP) and other parties will be demolished to build new structures. The issue is in the notice of Chief Minister A. Revanth Reddy and the Legislative Council Chairman and other officials would visit the place soon and take a decision. He also said that the neglected Lalitha Kala Thoranam would be beautified.
Mr. Venkata Reddy said that top priority will be given to widening and improvement of the Hyderabad-Vijayawada highway to reduce the travel time to less than three hours. He said he had already sought an appointment with Union Minister for Transport and Highways Nitin Gadkari to submit a representation to widen the highway to six lanes.
