I am a student,I would like to post my view on new Seemandhra Capital
Ongole,should be given the first preference,the district has the roots of both Raayalseema and Coastal Andhra.The Vast availability of Goverment Lands also should be considered,given the increased prices of land due to Land Acquisition Bill-2013,also it is Geographically Centric.In the event of further bifurcation of Raayalaseema and Andhra,Ongole could as Permanent Common capital as it's in Centre.Ongole also boasts of Six Lane National Highway,Chennai to Delhi/Howrah Grand Trunk Railway route.Given it's adjacency to Sea,Ports can be developed,Industries can flourish.Drinking water can be supplied from Gundlakamma,Rallapadu,Veligonda,RaamaTheertham Reservoirs.Also,Check dams can be built across Musi,Paleru to further supplement the Water Sources,In case of emergency water can also be drawn from NagarjunaSagar Right Canal,Further channeling of Krishna Water can be done without any Lift Motors as Ongole is Topographically Southwards to Krishna River.Vanpic lands,Ramayapatnam Lands can act as Growth Engines.Also,A planned city can be developed.
Making Vijayawada-Guntur as Capital will deteriorate the already decreasing agricultural output.Lands in Guntur,Tenali are very fertile,atleast 3 crops a year can be expected.over 30% of entire erstwhile's AP state's Agricultural Output is from Krishna,Guntur Districts.Announcing the capital in Vijayawada-Guntur,will further intensify the Caste wars where as Ongole has equal proportions of all Upper Castes.But,This area has immense infrastructure in Transport.Each and every district is easily accessible.This area has to be given the second preference
Vizag is at one corner of state,Citing the cases of Bengaluru & Chennai as in the corner of respective states can't work out in present AP's Scenario,as people are well aware and conscious about locaton.Raayalseema people won't find it acceptable.Imagine people travelling 1100kms from Kuppam to reach Vizag,rather annex Rayalaseema to Karnataka,There are no direct means of transportation to Vizag from Anantpur districts.Please refrain from making Vizag as Capital
Tirupathi,is known as abode of god,it's better to leave that city,also it's near to Chennai&Bengaluru,What if there is further bifuracation,Andhra region has to again search for new capital.
Given,threats from terrorists,as sited recently at Puttur,Making this city as Capital should be refrained.Also,like Vizag,it's at one corner of State.Please don't make Tirupathi as Capital
Kurnool,erstewhile capital of Andhra State,is the gateway to Rayalaseema,Making capital here will not be acceptable to Uttharandra districts.Given,it's faction background,this can trigger caste&communal wars in future.Also transport facilities aren't adequate.Kurnool lies in Border of Telangana.Further expansion will only benefit people of Telangana rather than Seemandhra.Please refrain from making this region as Capital

Very nicely you write about expressing everything inside you. I'm glad your getting it out. But you know what you want. And sometime it's hard to meet expectations. That's how they were bot up and that's how they expect us to be. Sometimes you need to try to balance both. Both are important.but don't keep that from doing what you want or what you want to be.
ReplyDeleteStay positive! More positive you are, you attract more good things. That's how life works!:) Hope you really figure out. Relax in life, do not think too much, enjoy and you decide way you want it to be.
ReplyDelete" Hope you really figure out.". This is what that matters the most. Grateful and surprised that you read it in first place. I was mum, never interacted with you all guys those 2 years when I was there in person to be frank, sorry if you thought I was rude/pompous (pseudo). Now I am figuring out, connecting the dots, forming thoughts, more importantly working towards it reducing fear of failure. I realized the need of a work ethic. Thank you for the heads up and feedback.
DeleteThese comments were meant to be for the parenting article. Got posted here!:) But hope you got the point
