AP cabinet to meet today, to approve major investments and development projects

The Andhra Pradesh Cabinet is scheduled to convene at 11am on Tuesday, where it is expected to approve investments totalling Rs 28,546 crore for 19 projects that were greenlit during the recent 7th State Investment Promotion Board (SIPB) meeting. A significant item on the agenda is the discussion surrounding the establishment of Cognizant in Visakhapatnam. In addition, the Cabinet will review plans to invite tenders for the development of infrastructure across 1,450 acres within the Amaravati Government Complex, estimated to cost Rs 1,052 crore. Another critical proposal involves inviting tenders for the connection of the Seed Access Road to National Highway 16, estimated at Rs 682 crore. Moreover, the Cabinet is likely to explore land allotments to various organisations and is anticipated to address the acquisition of an additional 44,000 acres through land pooling in the second phase of the Amaravati project. This discussion coincides with the coalition government's completion of one year in power. Also on the table will be the Aerospace and Defence Policy, with recommendations for the establishment of two new urban development organisations in the state as part of a broader reorganisation initiative. Approval for these measures is likely to be secured during the forthcoming Cabinet meeting. Additionally, the Cabinet will deliberate on the operational details of the Annadata Sukhibhava scheme. Following the meeting, it is expected that Chief Minister Chandrababu Naidu will engage with ministers regarding the latest political developments.

Chandigarh: Anti-people move, says Congress on hike in property conversion charges

Jun 24, 2025 10:04 AM IST The Congress' local unit has condemned the 'arbitrary and steep' hike in charges for converting leasehold properties into freehold by the administration. HS Lucky, president of the Chandigarh Pradesh Congress Committee, termed the decision as 'anti-people'. This would severely impact thousands of residents who have long been awaiting regularisation of their properties, he said. Congress leader HS Lucky also highlighted increase in property tax, water charges, etc. 'After the threefold hike in property tax, increased water charges and rising electricity bills, the administration has now issued a new draconian order. This move will break the backbone of middle-class families, senior citizens and small property owners,' he said. 'This decision by the BJP-led administration is utterly insensitive and has been taken without any public consultation. The people of Chandigarh are already facing immense financial stress. This sudden hike, without any discussion or clarification, raises serious questions about the priorities of the administration,' he said, adding that the conversion fee must be nominal and equitable. The administration has already stated that a notification on the revised rates would be issued soon and implemented on June 30.
