It is known that the Andhra Pradesh government, headed by CM YS Jagan Mohan Reddy, announced new districts in the state for better administration and development. The government issued the notification to carve out 26 new districts from the existing 13.
However, the Jagan government is facing a lot of opposition from several sections of people across the state regarding the formation of new districts.
As per the draft notification issued on January 26, the government has proposed to set up Sri Satyasai district with headquarters at Puttaparthy. However, the people of Hindupur were upset with the government’s decision. They strongly oppose making Puttaparthy as the headquarters ignoring Hindupur, which is the centre of Parliament and the centre of the constituency. Hindupur MLA and actor Nandamuri Balakrishna has also expressed his dissatisfaction over the same.
The Legend actor started mouna deeksha at the Ambedkar statue in the town on Friday. Speaking on the occasion, Balakrishna said that he is ready to resign his MLA post if Hindupur is not declared as the district headquarters. Balayya also criticised Hindupur MP Gorantla Madhav for his silence on the issue.
