Amaravati to be developed as AI hub

Must read


Chief Minister N Chandrababu Naidu has directed officials to develop Amaravati as a city centred on Artificial Intelligence (AI). During a review meeting on Thursday, which included Minister for Municipal Administration Narayana and officials from the Capital Region Development Authority (CRDA), Naidu instructed that the Amaravati logo be designed with the first letter ‘A’ and the last letter ‘I’ to symbolise Artificial Intelligence.
Chandrababu emphasised the importance of integrating technology into every aspect of the capital’s development. He lamented that Amaravati, referred to as the “capital of the Gods,” had suffered under the previous government, which had neglected its development. He urged the officials to accelerate the revival of work on the capital, which had been stalled.
The CRDA officials informed the Chief Minister that the construction of their office building planned as a G+7 structure, had been delayed for five years due to the previous government’s negligence. Chandrababu directed that the building be completed within 90 days, insisting on no compromises in quality and the use of the latest technology
The Chief Minister also addressed the stalled ‘Happy Next’ project, initially launched to provide housing within the capital area. The project had seen high demand during the TDP regime, with plots selling out in just one hour, but was neglected by the previous administration. Chandrababu ordered immediate action to revive the project.
Furthermore, he noted that 3,558 acres still need to be acquired for the capital’s development, with farmers willing to offer their land. He instructed officials to resolve any issues in allotting plots to farmers and to use drones for overseeing jungle clearance, of which 60 per cent is complete. Chandrababu also urged the swift progression of metro rail projects in Visakhapatnam and Vijayawada.
