Will Jagan be shifting to Vizag soon?
The Hindu
Rumours are rife that it will happen in a few months and that search is on for a suitable house for the CM
VISAKHAPATNAM
While on the one hand, a heated debate on the three capitals’ issue is once again taking the centre stage in the State, rumours of Chief Minister Y.S. Jagan Mohan Reddy moving to Visakhapatnam shortly are also gaining ground. The rumours are rife that he may shift after the Dasara festival in October or some time in January next.
The issue of three capitals was believed to have been shelved after the Andhra Pradesh Decentralisation and Inclusive Development of All Regions Act and the CRDA Repeal Act were withdrawn by the YSR Congress Party-led State government in November 2021 and the Andhra Pradesh High Court had ordered that the government should develop Amaravati as the capital and implement the master plan.
But the YSRCP leaders have again raked it up and the debate and rhetoric has picked up pace. Chief Minister Y.S. Jagan Mohan Reddy had given a detailed presentation on the need of the three capitals and why Visakhapatnam should be made the Executive Capital, Amaravati the Legislative Capital and Kurnool the Judiciary Capital, in the Assembly on Thursday.
On the other hand, the opposition parties, including the TDP, are leaving no stone unturned to counter the YSRCP offensive.
The Amaravati Parirakshana Porata Committee has already embarked on a 60-day Maha Padayatra from Amaravati to Arasavalli in Srikakulam district, in protest against the three capitals’ move.

On December 23, the newly elected office bearers of the Anna Nagar Towers Club, led by its president ‘Purasai’ B. Ranganathan, who is a former MLA, met with Tamil Nadu Chief Minister M. K. Stalin and conveyed their greetings. According to a press release, besides, ‘Purasai’ B. Ranganathan, the Anna Nagar Towers Club delegation that met Stalin at Anna Arivalayam, the DMK Party headquarters, included vice-president R. Sivakumar, secretary R. Muralibabu, joint secretary D. Manojkumar, treasurer K. Jayachandran and executive committee members N. D. Avinash, K. Kumar, N. R. Madhurakavi, K. Mohan, U. Niranjan, S. Parthasarathi, K. Rajasekar, S. Rajasekar, M. S. Ramesh, R. Satheesh, N. C. Venkatesan and K. Yuvaraj. Karthik Mohan, deputy secretary of DMK’s Information Technology Wing, was present on the occasion.
