With the CRDA resuming operations and the allocation of substantial funds, Amaravati's development is set to progress significantly, aiming to meet global standards and cement its place as a model capital city for India.

Earlier, former Chief Minister Y S Jagan Mohan Reddy who was in favour of the idea of a three capital system kept Amaravati development on the back-burner.
