Minister Narayana and IAS Officers at Odds, CRDA and Amaravati Slowed Down

Tensions are brewing between Municipal Administration and Urban Development Minister Narayana and IAS officers, and the impact is showing – CRDA and Amaravati’s progress have slowed down. Though the exact reasons remain behind closed doors, insiders say the working relationship between the minister and the bureaucracy is far from smooth. A little bird tells us that the pace of Amaravati’s development has noticeably slackened, with key decisions getting delayed. While both sides continue to engage, there seems to be a disconnect in approach, leading to prolonged processes. With the projects now moving slower than expected, Narayana is said to be growing serious about getting things back on track. Whether this means renewed discussions or a push for faster execution remains to be seen. For now, CRDA’s plans are moving cautiously, with Amaravati’s progress closely watched.
