Union Home Ministry’s meeting on Monday to discuss about bifurcation of AP Bhavan

The Union Home Ministry has convened a meeting with State Reorganisation Affairs officials of Telangana and Andhra Pradesh on Monday to discuss about the bifurcation of Andhra Pradesh Bhavan in New Delhi.

Telangana Finance and State Reorganisation Affairs special chief secretary K. Ramakrishna Rao is gearing up to present a strong case on behalf of the State over bifurcation of the AP Bhavan, with properties spread over 19.7 acres of land in the national capital valued at an estimated ₹9,908 crore. Telangana will get 8.41 acres and buildings and AP 11.32 acres, if the property is divided on the basis of population ratio 58:42.

Several options have been proposed over the bifurcation of the premium property in the past, but they were not accepted by the two governments.
