Vijayawada: The winter session of the Andhra Pradesh State Assembly is likely to be held at the sprawling Acharya Nagarjuna University (ANU) campus in December this year, if everything goes well. Speaker Dr Kodela Sivaprasada Rao is visiting the university campus on Monday to see for himself if the campus can hold the winter session. The officials of Guntur district have proposed the auditorium of the university to host the winter session. The auditorium can accommodate 1,000 persons and has two seminar halls attached to it each accommodating 150 persons. The Speaker, during his interaction with media persons on Sunday, said that he wanted to hold the winter session of Assembly in the Deichmann Auditorium.
The auditorium was built in 2007 at a cost of Rs 5 crore of which Rs 2 crore were donated by Dr H H Deichmann, a Germany-based philanthropist, who was associated with local non-governmental organization, AMG India International. He was a friend of AMG’s founder Dr S John David, who worked for the poor and orphan children and the uplift of the weaker sections in Guntur district, with Chilakaluripet as his headquarters.
Interestingly, Chief Minister N Chandrababu Naidu, took oath right in front of this university on June 8, this year. Later, he held his first Cabinet meeting in Visakhapatnam and the first Collectors’ Conference in Vijayawada, besides the Independence Day celebrations at Kurnool. Several government offices were shifted to Vijayawada after this giving priority to Vijayawada-Guntur region after the bifurcation.
The Teachers’ Day was celebrated in Guntur after officially announcing the capital location around Vijayawada. The Chief Minister participated in the Teachers’ Day celebrations and promised to develop the two cities as part of the capital. A Capital Region Development Authority was also proposed for the region.
