The High Court constituted a full bench comprising Chief Justice Arup Kumar Goswami, Justice Joymalya Bagchi and Justice Nainala Jayasurya to hear more than 100 petitions filed by the farmers of Amaravati challenging the YSRCP government’s decision to form three capitals. It proposed administrative capital in Visakhapatnam, judicial capital in Kurnool and the legislative capital in Amaravati but it failed to materialise due to filing of numerous petitions in the High Court. The YSRCP government decided to make three capitals in different cities in order to ensure development in all parts of the state. The farmers claimed that the government had entered into agreements with them for offering their land under the Land Pooling Scheme (LPS), promising to develop a new capital. The proposed formation of three capitals by the state government was challenged by the farmers of Amaravati, the present capital region. The court also directed the state government to inform it on a regular basis over the implementation of its order on developing the capital city Amaravati.
