Andhra Capital City issue has become a unifying factor among all the Opposition parties in the state these days. Till now, the BJP, Jana Sena and Left parties did not react much on the stopping of Capital works. This is because they have their own negative views against Chandrababu Naidu’s grand plans for building Amaravati global city without considering the interests of local farmers and farm workers. There were also allegations of making it a real estate venture to benefit specific groups.
The scene changed dramatically overnight. A new Amaravati sentiment has gripped the people of coastal areas especially the twin Capital districts of Krishna and Guntur. The BJP, Jana Sena and Left parties have realised the prevailing sentiment among the people in favour of Capital. They started voicing their support effectively. Now, the Amaravati sentiment has reached the proportions of AP Special Status sentiment in the coastal region.
CM Jagan stopped Capital works the moment he came to power but he has not so far clarified what his alternative plans are for building Andhra Capital. His party has created lot of confusion which made the people lose confidence in his regime’s Capital policy. It is already too late for Jagan to suppress Amaravati sentiment now. If he does not initiate damage control steps, it will lead to a popular agitation with all Opposition parties taking active party.
If Jagan realizes before too late, ysrc would be wiped out in entire coastal belt. He had given life to TDP with polavaram, flood mgmt issues, capital + more; no economic activity whatsoever in the last 4 months, with next elections looming in 2021,it’s literally counting if Jagan doesn’t change his priorities to show development results
okay
