Speaking in different voices on Capital Amaravati, or its shifting is causing a great deal of confusion among the people of the State, former Minister and TDP MLA Ganta Srinivasa Rao has said, and urged Chief Minister Y.S. Jagan Mohan Reddy to break his silence on the issue.
“So far, Mr. Jagan Mohan Reddy has never given any indication on shifting the Capital, and hopefully he will not opt for it,” Mr. Srinivasa Rao said while addressing the media at the party office here on Thursday.
Quoting Mr. Jagan Mohan Reddy, the TDP leader said that as Leader of the Opposition, he had stated in the Assembly on September 4, 2014, that his party welcomed the setting up of the Capital in Vijayawada as it did not want people of one region to be pitted against another, and that wherever the Capital was set up it needed 30,000 acres.
