Minister Botsa’s comments on possible ‘Shift’ of AP Capital Amaravati has ignited a big political debate. Leaders cutting across political parties and cutting across regions are expressing their concerns over the possible change of AP capital. While TDP has come down heavily on Botsa’s comments, several BJP leaders in AP too found fault with the approach of AP government-led by YCP. Since CM Jagan Mohan Reddy is in US as part of his personal trip, naturally, speculations are rife about the change of AP capital.
However, the Opposition from AP BJP leaders has hinted that the Centre would intervene. As already the Centre and Jagan are at loggerheads over the re-negotiation of PPAs and reverse tendering on Polavaram National Irrigation Project, now the hot topic of new Capital City to AP would also irk the Union Government which had already sanctioned its share of money for the development of Amaravati.
Amidst this, Union Minister of State (MoS) for Home Affairs Kishan Reddy has responded on the matter. When asked about the topic of new capital to AP, Kishan Reddy made it very clear that the Centre would not interfere in the state’s matter. He stated that he don’t want to comment on it further. Kishan Reddy has also asked the Telangana state government to implement Ayushman Bharat in Telangana in the wake of reports of stopping of Arogya Sri scheme. “If Arogya Sri is better scheme, why are the Dharnas taking place?” questioned Kishan Reddy.
Kishan Reddy also countered KTR for his comments on BJP national working president JP Nadda. He said it is not good practice to make such comments. He opined that it shows the head-strong attitude of KTR. “If KTR doesn’t know Nadda, how did KTR meet Nadda earlier? If BJP doesn’t exist in Telangana, how Kavitha lost in Nizamabad?” When asked about whether BJP would contest in the coming Municipal elections, Kishan Reddy said that Municipal Elections are not BJP’s target. He said BJP wants to come into power in Telangana state in 2023.
