It is a known fact that hundreds of farmers belonging to different villages in Guntur district have donated their cultivation lands for the new capital of Andhra Pradesh, Amaravathi. Though all the opposition parties are protesting against the government for grabbing lands from farmers forcibly, the chief minister N. Chandrababu Naidu feels that the farmers should get their due respect.

If the sources are to be believed, the CM in a recent review meeting decided to felicitate all the farmers of 29 villages who have sacrificed their lands for capital region.

This felicitation ceremony will be held in the presence of Prime Minister Narendra Modi on October 22 at the massive foundation laying ceremony.

Babu and his cabinet is all set to make the ceremony a big success and working real hard to make it a historic event.

The CM himself is monitoring all the arrangements and is calling for regular review meetings with CRDA officials and his cabinet colleagues.

According to sources, Babu has formed four committees namely Organising Committee, Reception Committee, Venue Committee and Cultural/Media Committee to take care of all the arrangements of this state event.

He made party MPs, legislators and other officials to head these committees.

The CM has already invited many national and international personalities to this ceremony.
