Speaking on the occasion, Swamiji invited Chief Minister N Chandrababu Naidu to visit the place and have the ‘darshan’ of goddess Sri Marakata Raja Rajeswari Devi for the well-being of the State.
He said that Amaravati has great significance in the ancient times and lauded the initiative of Chief Minister for naming Amaravati as new capital for the State and wished him to develop the State on all fronts.
