Andhra Pradesh Chief Minister Chandrababu Naidu performs ‘bhoomi puja’ for new house in Amaravati. It is being built on a plot Naidu purchased from farmers in the core capital area. Women farmers from the capital region decorate the site with traditional rangoli patterns.
Andhra Pradesh Chief Minister N. Chandrababu Naidu and his wife N. Bhuvaneswari performed ‘bhoomi puja’ (groundbreaking ceremony) at 8.51 a.m. for their own house in Amaravati on Wednesday.
Mr. Naidu’s son and HRD Minister N. Lokesh, his wife N. Brahmani and son N. Devansh were present. About 200 members from the Nandamuri and Nara families attended the ceremony.
The new house is being built on a plot Mr. Naidu purchased from the local farmers in the core capital area. It is near E6 Road, behind the Secretariat at Velagapudi.
Women farmers from the capital region decorated the ‘bhoomi puja’ site with traditional rangoli patterns. They drew sacred symbols such as the conch (shankha), ‘chakra’ (disc), and ‘Thirunamam’.
