YSRCP government has changed Amaravati Master Plan, alleges TDP leader

Accusing the YSR Congress Party (YSRCP) government of changing the Amaravati Master Plan, Telugu Desam Party (TDP) former MLA Tenali Sravan Kumar has demanded that Chief Minister Y.S. Jagan Mohan Reddy must tender an unconditional apology to the farmers from the capital region for his earlier criticism on the issue, before allocating land to the people from poor financial background in the R5 Zone. 

“Earlier, the Chief Minister and his Cabinet colleagues had described Amaravati as a noman’s land, graveyard, desert and so on. They had also said that this land was neither fit for setting up the capital city nor for residential and commercial purposes. Now, the Chief Minister is distributing the land to the poor, in violation of the APCRDA rules,” Mr. Sravan Kumar told teh media at the TDP office here on May 11 (Wenesday).

“Had Mr. Jagan Mohan Reddy been genuine in his intentions he would have developed Amaravati as the capital city instead of mooting the three-capital proposal,” he said.
