Rebutting the claims of opposition parties, he said that the state government is committed to develop Amaravati as a legislative capital, Vizag also needs to be developed as an administrative capital.
He said: "Vizag is developed in all measures and we need not spend so much on developing the city further. We have to use funds judiciously. We as a government have our priorities in place. Why spend so many lakhs of crores on developing Amaravati when you already have an existing developed city that can be made the executive capital?"
Also, he said, "We want to establish Kurnool as the judicial capital. That is the motto of our CM Jagan Mohan Reddy who wants to ensure de-centralisation of administration."
The YSRCP leader said, ‘’The three capitals is the wish of the Andhra Pradesh people and so it is supporting JAC Visakha Garjana."
