History Today: Amaravati Bill in Parliament!

This resolution is going to come to discussion today, and considering the numbers strength of the NDA alliance in the parliament House, it is likely to be passed without much of a delay or opposition.

This is similar to the earlier jurisdiction made on Hyderabad being the permanent capital of Telangana, and this process is going to be initiated for Andhra Pradesh with Amaravati as the capital.

Home Minister, Amit Shah pointed out that this resolution would effectively be considered as legally binding document from June 2, 2024 as the process originated after Hyderabad’s 10 year tenure as the joint capital came to an end then.
