Speaking to the media in Vijayawada, Narayana said the YSRCP president himself had once admitted in the Assembly that 30,000 acres were required to build the capital but later changed his stance.

"He agreed to Amaravati in the Assembly, even raising his hand in support. But once in power, he reversed his stand and pushed the idea of three capitals. After losing power, he again spoke about Amaravati. This double game has only misled people," the minister said.
