Farmers Advocate for Urgent Resolution of Ongoing Amaravati Land Concerns

Farmers from Rayapudi village in the Amaravati capital region have recently stepped forward to advocate for the resolution of long-standing Amaravati land concerns. These agricultural landowners, who contributed their property to the Capital Region Development Authority (CRDA) to support the development of the new capital city, met with Union Minister of State Dr. Pemmasani Chandrasekhar at his office in Kolanukonda this past Sunday.

The delegation sought urgent intervention regarding several outstanding issues linked to land pooling and the planning of layouts. For these landholders, the primary challenges involve the allocation of designated commercial plots and addressing specific obstacles related to road access and overall layout design. This situation specifically affects farmers from the Rayapudi area who opted not to join the initial phase of the Amaravati land pooling project but have since offered their lands for the broader development of the region.

Addressing Amaravati Land Concerns and Future Development

During the productive meeting, Dr. Pemmasani Chandrasekhar listened closely to the grievances presented by the representatives. The farmers expressed their appreciation for the Minister’s receptive approach and his commitment to addressing the complications that have emerged from the capital development process. By bringing these Amaravati land concerns to the forefront, the farmers aim to ensure that their transition into the project is managed equitably.

In response to these representations, Dr. Pemmasani offered a firm assurance that he would engage directly with the CRDA Commissioner and other relevant authorities. He emphasized that the legitimate grievances of the farmers would be thoroughly presented to officials, with a promise to pursue the matter until a fair and satisfactory resolution is reached for all affected parties.

The farmers underscored that they had voluntarily transferred their land holdings to the state government, motivated by a desire to contribute to the greater advancement of Amaravati. They also detailed specific infrastructure and development challenges unique to the Rayapudi locality that require immediate administrative attention. Dr. Pemmasani reiterated that the current coalition government remains steadfast in its dedication to protecting the interests of the farming community. He pledged to continue monitoring these Amaravati land concerns to ensure that every land contributor receives justice and fair treatment as the region undergoes its ambitious transformation into a major capital hub.
