The Cabinet sub-committee constituted to deal with land acquisition for building the capital city around Vijayawada would tour Krishna and Guntur districts soon after the budget session of the Assembly, Andhra Pradesh Finance Minister Yanamala Ramakrishnudu said here on Friday.
In an informal chat with reporters in his chambers in the Assembly, Mr. Ramakrishnudu said land acquisition would be completed as early as possible and the infrastructure would be developed in a Public-Private Partnership mode. He said sub-committee members and Ministers P. Narayana, P. Pulla Rao and Devineni Umamaheshwara Rao had already started the exercise of framing the modalities and the committee would talk to farmers in the region.
He said the government was not expecting any problem with regard to land acquisition and observed that a mega city like Mumbai did not witness any trouble while acquiring land for development.
Mr. Ramakrishnudu said the 14 Finance Commission members would be interacting with him and Chief Minister, N. Chandrababu Naidu in Tirupati on September 12. He said the Finance Department has approved the proposal to fill 7,700 vacancies of teachers posts.
