Vizianagaram Zilla Parishad chairman and YSRCP district president Majji Srinivasa Rao on Sunday said that the real development of north Andhra region was possible only when Visakhapatnam was made the Executive Capital.
Addressing a media conference here, he said that the people of the region were waiting eagerly to see it happening as making Viskhapatnam the Executive Capital will help in generating more livelihood opportunities.
He said the Amaravati farmers were only trying to protect their interests with the one capital slogan and added that Amaravati would continue being one of the capitals even in the new model. Mr. Srinivasa Rao said that people of north Andhra region would have the right to fight for growth of their region if three capitals becomes a reality.
He alleged that former Union Minister P. Ashok Gajapathi Raju were encouraging Amaravati farmers but forgetting the interests of north Andhra region.

Former CM B.S. Yediyurappa had challenged the first information report registered on March 14, 2024, on the alleged incident that occurred on February 2, 2024, the chargesheet filed by the Criminal Investigation Department (CID), and the February 28, 2025, order of taking cognisance of offences afresh by the trial court.
