As the Andhra Pradesh high court on Friday extended its status quo on the transferring of the executive capital of the state from Amaravati to Visakhapatnam till August 27, the Jagan Mohan government came out with a proposal to complete all the pending works in Amaravati and develop it as a metropolitan region.

The AMRDA authorities told the chief minister that it would require at least Rs 14,000-Rs 15,000 crores to complete all the works. Jagan told them to find ways to mobilize additional resources in coordination with the finance department so that all the building and road infrastructure works be completed. The minister said the farmers of Amaravati would get value for their developed plots which they had got in lieu of the lands they had given for the capital city.
