The Cabinet sub-Committee approved new land allotments for six institutions and revised allocations for four previously approved entities, in Capital city Amaravati, in Andhra Pradesh, on Monday (June 23, 2025) in its meeting held at Secretariat, Amaravati. While Minister for Municipal Administration and Urban Development P. Narayana and Minister for Industries T.G. Bharat attended the meeting in person, two more Ministers including Finance Minister Payyavula Keshav and Tourism Minister Kandula Durgesh attended through online.

Two earlier land allotments have also been cancelled, Minister Narayana announced after the committee’s meeting.

Addressing the media, Mr. Narayana said several institutions that were allotted land during 2014–19 had withdrawn during the previous government’s tenure owing to administrative inaction and the confusion caused by the three-capital proposal. He said consultations were under way with such institutions to reconsider their plans.

In the latest move, the committee sanctioned land to ten institutions — six new and four with revised allocations. Among the new beneficiaries are the Income Tax Department (2 acres), A.P. Grameena Bank (2 acres), Central Bank of India (0.4 acres), Subsidiary Intelligence Bureau (0.5 acres), Bureau of Immigration (0.5 acres), and the BJP State Office (2 acres). Revisions were approved for allocations made earlier to the Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI – 2 acres), Geological Survey of India (2 acres), State Forensic Science Laboratory (5 acres), and Andhra Pradesh Cooperative Bank Limited (3 acres).

Meanwhile, allotments made earlier to GAIL India Private Limited and Ambica Agarbathi Company have been cancelled for non-fulfilment of commitments. So far, 884 acres have been allotted to 64 institutions, and with the new approvals, the number has reached 74. Minister Narayana emphasised that construction work in Amaravati is picking up pace, with more than 10,000 workers currently on site. Once the monsoon recedes, he said, activity will intensify with nearly 20,000 workers expected to be engaged in capital development.
