Andhra Pradesh Municipal Administration Minister Narayana issued a stern warning to construction agencies over delays in Amaravati development works. During an inspection in Nelapadu, he made it clear that the government will not tolerate slow progress and demanded strict adherence to deadlines.

Minister’s Inspection at Amaravati

P. Narayana personally inspected the construction of gazetted officers’ and Group-D quarters in the Nelapadu area of Amaravati.

Expressing dissatisfaction over the slow pace of work, he strongly cautioned the contracting firms:

“If you can’t work, get out. But there should be no delay.”

He stressed that the government expects timely execution and will no longer tolerate inefficiency.

Action Against Construction Firms

The minister particularly expressed displeasure with Shapoorji Pallonji Group over alleged delays in capital construction works.

Key directions issued:

Immediate review of project progress
Replacement of underperforming company representatives
Strict compliance with construction targets

He warned that the era of prolonged extensions and excuses is over.

Political Remarks on Previous Government

Later speaking to the media, Narayana criticized the Yuvajana Sramika Rythu Congress Party (YSRCP), alleging that political decisions during their tenure stalled Amaravati’s development.

He remarked that if not for the “three-capital” proposal controversy, Amaravati would have emerged as a world-class city by now.

Key Development Targets Announced

The minister outlined upcoming priorities:

4,026 housing units currently under construction to be completed soon
Major road works targeted for completion within 3 months
Drainage and underground cable works to finish before the monsoon
A full-fledged administrative complex planned within 3 years

He expressed confidence that governance will fully operate from Amaravati once key infrastructure is completed.
