Three capitals concept gaining momentum in Vizianagaram, Srikakulam and Parvathipuram districts

 The three capitals proposal has gained traction in Vizianagaram, Srikakulam and Parvathipuram districts, thanks to direct participation of ruling YSR Congress Party Ministers, MLAs and MLCs of the region. Rallies, round table conferences and relay hunger strikes, and other activities are taking place at many places including Vizianagaram, Narasannapeta, Parvathipuram, Saluru, Palakonda.  

Minister for Revenue Dharmana Prasada Rao has already expressed his willingness to tender his resignation for direct participation in agitation to achieve the goal of making Visakhapatnam the State's executive capital.

Srikakulam ZP chairperson Piriya Vijaya and former Itchapuram MLA Piriya Sairaj said that people of Srikakulam district would get livelihood opportunities in Visakhapatnam itself if it was made the executive capital of Andhra Pradesh.
