A decade after Andhra Pradesh’s bifurcation into Telangana, the fate of Hyderabad as a joint capital remains in limbo. Per the 2014 Reorganisation Act, Hyderabad was designated as the joint capital for 10 years, ending June 2, 2024. However, disagreements within Andhra Pradesh’s political parties have stalled the decision on the new capital. Former Chief Minister Chandrababu Naidu’s plan to establish Amravati as the capital was reversed by current Chief Minister Y.S. Jagan Mohan Reddy, who proposed three capitals: Amaravati (legislative), Kurnool (judicial), and Visakhapatnam (executive). This move faces legal challenges, and Reddy has failed to relocate to Visakhapatnam before the 2024 elections. Calls for the Centre to extend Hyderabad’s joint capital status exist, but no concrete decision has been made.
