One of the most controversial expenditures of the previous Jagan government, the Rushikonda Palace, continues to drain Andhra Pradesh’s finances. The palace, originally a revenue-generating area, now remains largely unused while monthly costs for electricity, cleaning, and maintenance continue to mount.
In this context, Deputy Chief Minister Pawan Kalyan visited the Rushikonda Palace today, accompanied by MLAs, MPs, and ministers Nadendla Manohar and Kandula Durgesh. While this is not his first visit, it marks a renewed focus on finding a practical solution for the palace.
During discussions with party representatives, Kalyan highlighted that the previous administration had transformed an area generating ₹7 crore annually into a costly palace, with electricity bills alone reaching around ₹1 crore per month.
With the government still exploring ways to utilize the property effectively, Kalyan’s visit aimed to assess potential options for putting this lavish yet underused palace to logical and productive use. The goal is to turn a costly dead investment into a resource that benefits the state.
