Vijayawada: The demand for apartments and multi-storied buildings in Vijayawada and surroundings increased during the past 15 days as the Chief Minister made it clear on the shifting of Secretariat employees by June 27. The officials of various departments started searching for suitable accommodation for their respective directorates in and around Vijayawada city.
An official said that they are searching for suitable accommodation for the past one week to set up the directorate of their department in Vijayawada city. This is not a lone case, officials of several other departments are also on the same job.
Meanwhile, some employees reached the city to search a suitable house as they have to start functioning from the new Secretariat building from June 27. An employee of the Secretariat, Srinivasa Rao, is searching for a two-room accommodation as he could not shift his family with grownup children.

He said more than 3,000 apartments are ready for occupation in and around Vijayawada city and officials started enquiring for lease of the apartments.

He said that the CREDAI members informed Chief Minister Chandrababu Naidu about the available accommodation in Krishna and Guntur districts and they are ready to extend cooperation to the government for providing accommodation to employees and offices.
Another official who prefers to be anonymous said that the demand for accommodation in Vijayawada city is increasing as majority of the heads of departments prefer to stay in the city.
