6-member Panel to Monitor AP Capital

A day after the governments of Singapore and Andhra Pradesh signed an MoU for designing a master plan for building the state’s new capital near Vijayawada, Municipal Administration Minister P Narayana announced that a six-member working committee consisting of three members from AP Government and three from Singapore would be constituted to monitor the progress of the master plan.

A 14-member Singapore designing team had a three-and-a-half-hour discussion with senior officials of different departments regarding the master plan for the new capital on Tuesday at the Secretariat. The team was supposed to conduct an aerial survey of the capital region --Vijayawada, Guntur, Tenali and Mangalagiri -- but it was cancelled as the aircraft developed a technical snag. Later, speaking to reporters at the Secretariat here, Narayana said the six-member working committee would monitor the progress on a day-to-day basis.
