There is a hue and cry from the farmers of the capital region. Ever since Jagan announced the idea of confining Amaravathi as the Legislative Capital, the farmers hit the road. They have seen the ploy behind this game. They saw what was in store for them.
If the Capital region is developed on the lines of what Chandra Babu was proposing it would mean these lands would be costliest in the entire state. It means people will grow richer overnight. If a farmer who has few acres of land is getting richer by few crores it is not going to affect Jagan.
However, Jagan believes one-third of the total area in the capital region is with TDP leaders or their benamis. Developing Amaravthi means putting the cash into his political opponents directly. This money is going to be used against Jagan in the 2024 Assembly elections.
Jagan and YSRCP realized this and played the game in a way that TDP leaders would incur huge losses leave alone making money out of Amaravathi.
