Gannavaram-Nuziveedu to be New Capital for Seemandhra

With the bifurcation of Andhra Pradesh is imminent as it is just matter of days, and June 2 being the Formation Day of both Seemandhra (residuary state of AP) and Telangana, the big question on everyone's lips is what is the new capital for Seemandhra. It is common fact that many cities and towns like Visakhapatnam, Vijayawada, Guntur, Prakasam, Kurnool and Tirupathi are in fray. The Directorate of Town and Country Planning (DTCP) has done its own research and submitted a detailed report to sub-committee on the new capital for Seemandhra. DTCP officials have studied the locations of Visakhapatnam, Kurnool, Donakonda in Prakasam district, Hanuman Junction in Krishna district and Nagarjuna Sagar in Guntur district.

According to its preliminary report, Vizag, Kurnool and Donakonda in Praksam could be ruled out as the officials found it "difficult" to setup Capital there. Going by report, Vizag's geographical disadvantages acting as stumbling block for it whereas the officials found that Kurnool will face inundation problem and Donakonda is too remote place. DTCP officials have predicted better chances for both Hanuman Junction and Nagarjuna Sagar in Guntur district. While Hanuman Junction is located on Gannavaram-Nuziveedu stretch and equi distant from Vijayawada and Eluru, Nagarjuna Sagar is likely to have rich water resources. 

TDP top brass confirmed to Gulte.com that Gannavaram-Nuziveedu stretch would be the new capital. Efforts are being done to set up new capital city in between Gannavaram-Nuziveedu stretch, say top sources. Also, Gannavaram airport is likely to be renovated on par with global standards soon. Meanwhile buzz is that PM designate Narendra Modi, who is going to swear-in on May 26, is likely to make a big statement over Seemandhra very soon after taking the charge as PM. Modi is expected to announce a big financial package for Seemandhra. Chandra Babu-Modi's bonding is said to be come in handy for Seemandhra people.

On flip side, huge efforts are in place to simultaneously develop Guntur, Visakhapatnam, Tirupati, Kurnool, Prakasam and Nellore into new destinations for MNCs, education hubs (IIT, IIM), Sea ports, financial centres, Central research institutes respectively. TDP-BJP combine seems to be keen to keep its word and totally relying on development plank. Looks like, good days are ahead for Seemandhra.

Pawan Says He Will Support NDA In 2 States

As a part of their tacit understanding, TDP head honcho Chandra Babu Naidu and film star and Jana Sena founder Pawan Kalyan shared the dais during election campaigning. Addressing the gathering, Chandra Babu claimed that he and Narendra Modi were a winning combination. He said they will strive together for the development of the newly states. Pawan started off his speech by saying that he chose not to field candidates to avoid indirectly supporting the Congress. He also blamed the Congress for the way in which it went about the bifurcation process and said that there was no need to delay the decision till hundreds of youth sacrificed their lives. 

He said this was the primary reason for his extending his support to Narendra Modi at the centre and Chandra Babu closer home as he was part of NDA in the past. Pawan also said that he was sincerely hoping that NDA should come to power at the Centre and in Telangana which will benefit the people of both Telangana and Seemandhra.  The instigating statements made by KCR against Modi and Sonia Gandhi will not aid the prospects of Telangana people, he said. Pawan added that all the sacrifices by Telangana people will go waste if they support TRS and KCR. Pawan said that he envisaged NDA governments in both the states and said that he would campaign extensively for the NDA alliance in both the states. 

However, Pawan strategically avoided mentioning TDP during the entire speech. When asked if he will campaign along side Chandra Babu, he diplomatically said that he will decide depending on the situation at that time. Pawan also chose to address the issue of a BC candidate being made the CM in Telangana. He reminded that Chandra Babu had promised to make a BC candidate chief minister in Telangana. While criticizing KCR for talking down to BC leader Shravan, he said he was extending his support to NDA based on Chandra Babu’s promise.

In all probability, the bill will reach the State Legislature Secretariat before commencement of the session.

Minister for Legislature Affairs D Sridhar Babu said the Telangana Bill would come up for discussion during the ensuing Assembly session and sought the cooperation of all parties for a smooth passage of the Bill without any hurdles.

Though the debate in the Assembly is a mere formality, the Congress members from Seemandhra region, who are vehemently opposed to the bifurcation of the state, would press for a voting.

As a matter of fact they had already started parleys with leaders of various party leaders from the region to enlist their support in this regard.
