As I wrote earlier, just wait for another month or so. Several big announcements are coming!

So, are you investing in Swarnaandhra? :-)

My only investment in current AP is emotional energy.  

My personal view is that vijayawada area is in a huge real estate bubble.  I will stay away from such euphoria for practical reasons. 

I would not mind buying a small cottage on the banks krishna or godavari away from cities for my retirement. May be near pulichintala on krishna or near polavaram on godavari. 

I read somewhere that Nirmala may get a promotion to cabinet rank.  Glad to see quality people being rewarded.

How about near Srungavarapukota or Simhachalam (panasa pallu, pinapple, scenic views, Appalammas, etc.)?

It's about 6000 ft above sea level, and that is the town at the second highest elevation in that area (There is another small place which is the highjest, at about 6500 ft). Borra caves with mountains of black marble are very close to Anathagiri.

Is Anantagiri inside the tribal area? If not, it is a great place to invest in.

Read the article, not just the title.

However, with regard to the central government’s assurance of granting special status to AP and Telangana states, which cannot be brought under the purview of the Act since it is for the National Development Council to consider.

HYDERABAD: Even as the Centre is sending out indications that it cannot accord special category status to the truncated Andhra Pradesh by bypassing relevant rules, TDP MPs from Seemandhra raised their voice and made it clear that they would not compromise on getting a special status to the state as was promised by the then UPA government while passing the AP Reorganisation Bill-2014

Yes, it is the development council that decides. You just have to wait.

Apparently Mr Modi himself is sceptical about the implementation of the various assurances provided at the time of the passage of the AP Reorganisation Bill in Parliament as well as some of the provisions of the Act. “It is difficult to convince the PM. It seems he has made up his mind not to grant special status and industrial incentives to the two states as these are bound to generate a lot of opposition from other states,” a source said

Hyderabad: Though Union ministers are routinely giving assurances on giving special status to Telangana and Andhra Pradesh, so far there have been no specific orders on the matter, sources said.

According to sources, the Prime Minister has received letters from the Chief Ministers of Tamil Nadu, Madhya Pradesh, Gujarat, Odisha and West Bengal objecting to the Centre granting any favours to the two Telugu-speaking states.

In the last six months, representatives of the AP government, including the Chief Minister, have approached the Union commerce ministry for the special status and special incentives around 16 times.

“Each time we were assured that it would be done and was being worked out; but to our knowledge, nothing has been moved in the ministry,” a source said. Apparently when ministry officials enquired with the PMO regarding this, the latter asked them “not to proceed unless specifically told”.
