Andhra Pradesh Chief Minister N. Chandrababu Naidu reaffirmed that Amaravati will continue as the exclusive capital of the state, emphasizing its inviolability for the future. He expressed delight at the Lok Sabha’s approval of the Andhra Pradesh Reorganisation (Amendment) Bill, 2026, which aims to legally establish Amaravati as the state’s capital.
Speaking at a public gathering during the ‘Pedala Sevalo’ event in Vinjamuru, Nellore district, the Chief Minister highlighted Amaravati’s significance as a representation of the self-respect of Andhra Pradesh’s people. He described the Bill’s passage in the Lok Sabha as a moment of pride for the state, bringing clarity to uncertainties surrounding the capital’s future.
Naidu thanked Prime Minister Narendra Modi, Union Home Minister Amit Shah, and leaders from various parties who supported the Bill. He criticized past administrations for proposing a three-capitals model, accusing them of shirking their legislative duties regarding the capital issue.
In a social media post, Naidu hailed the event as a historic and emotional milestone for the state. He expressed gratitude to the Union NDA government for recognizing Amaravati as the sole Praja Rajadhani, reflecting the collective aspirations of millions in the nation’s Parliament.
