Andhra Pradesh Chief Minister Chandrababu Naidu has been insisting his administration employees to shift from Hyderabad to Vijayawada since last many months. But they are not willing to shift to Vijayawada with such a short notice.

However, he and Chief Secretary IYR Krishna Rao both have shifted to Vijayawada and decide to operate the government from there from today itself. CM’s camp office was arranged in the Irrigation Department’s building located at Governorpeta in Vijayawada. CS office will be arranged at Collector’s office. Chief Minister Chandrababu Naidu will conduct review meetings of the finance and rural development departments at his camp office in Vijayawada today. CM and CS will stay five days a week at Vijayawada.

Parakala Prabhakar, advisor of the state government has announced that cabinet meetings including the proposed one on August 17th will be held at Vijayawada only. However, shifting of thousands of employees, offices and files would be a major task for the state government. Finding accommodation for thousands of employees and offices would be another big task. The general administration department is making necessary arrangements for their shifting.

But, employees are telling the government that they can move only after providing accommodation at Vijayawada. Hence, still there is some uncertainty prevailing about their shifting to Vijayawada. The Chief Minister may wants to move to Vijayawada after realizing that their phones are tapped by the Telangana government. Otherwise, he would have stayed at Hyderabad for few more years until all the state government offices are constructed in the seed capital at Amravati.
