Amaravati: Despite alleged conspiracies by the opposition YSRCP, the entire country supported the decision to designate Amaravati as the capital of Andhra Pradesh, Chief Minister N Chandrababu Naidu said on Friday, March 3.

Addressing a press conference, Naidu asserted that after receiving the central government’s sovereign seal, no one can alter the status of the capital city in the future.

“They (YSR Congress) wanted to destroy Amaravati, but we enacted a law. Today, the entire country stands behind Amaravati. Overcoming all conspiracies, Amaravati has emerged victorious.

The dreams of five crore people have been fulfilled with the help of the Centre’s sovereign seal. Nobody will be able to change anything in the future,” he said.
