Special package to Seemandhra
New Delhi: The Central Government is likely to woo the Seemandhra region with special financial package for its allround development and help build a new capital with modern amenities but is not in a mood to consider any change in the status of Hyderabad or make it a Union Territory.
The GoM, set up to deal with issues concerning bifurcation of Andhra Pradesh and which held its first meeting, will try its best to assuage the feelings of Seemandhra region following the decision to create Telangana and offer a sizeable financial package for the all-round development of coastal Andhra and Rayalaseema, highly placed sources said.
The Central government will help the Seemandhra region to build a new capital but is unlikely to change the status of Hyderabad or make it a Union Territory as it would create more problem in Telangana region. The Union Cabinet on October 3 had decided that Hyderabad will be joint capital of the two states for 10 years. The GoM has no plan to visit Andhra Pradesh.
