In the latest Central Sanctioning and Monitoring Committee meeting held on June 17, 2026, another 12,370 houses were sanctioned for 107 urban local bodies across the state with Central assistance of Rs 185.55 crore. Yet, Amaravati was deliberately kept out of the proposals sent by the State Government."},{"text":"The Centre categorically stated that PMAY-U 2.0 sanctions are based entirely on proposals submitted by the State Government. “The truth is now on record. Chandrababu Naidu’s government never sought a single house for the poor in Amaravati,” said YSR Congress."},{"text":"This raises disturbing questions about the real intentions behind Amaravati. If proposals could be sent for 107 towns and cities, why was the capital city alone denied housing for the poor? Does Chandrababu Naidu believe Amaravati is meant only for the wealthy, influential and real estate speculators? Is there no place for workers, daily wage earners, weaker sections and middle-class families in the capital? it asked."},{"text":"The coalition government has repeatedly claimed that Amaravati belongs to all. Its own actions prove exactly the opposite. By denying PMAY houses to the poor, it has made it clear that its vision of Amaravati is not a people’s capital but a capital reserved for elite interests and large-scale real estate profits, the YSR Congress alleged."},{"text":"It claimed that the parliamentary replies had exposed the double standards of the TDP government. While it spends thousands of crores projecting Amaravati as a world-class capital, it has consciously denied the poorest families even the opportunity to own a roof over their heads in the same city."},{"text":"“A government that truly believes in inclusive development would have ensured that the poor were the first beneficiaries of housing in the capital, not the first to be excluded,” the opposition party said."},{"text":"The Chandrababu Naidu government and Minister Nara Lokesh must now answer a simple question before the people of Andhra Pradesh: Why did your government not seek even one PMAY-U 2.0 house for the poor in Amaravati? The Centre’s reply has exposed the truth. Excluding the poor from Amaravati is not an accident. It is the coalition government’s policy, it added."}]}}},"relatedArticles":{"edges":[{"node":{"uid":"andhra-liquor-case-accused-files-surrender-petitio","data":{"third_party_url":null,"title":{"text":"Andhra liquor case: Accused files surrender
