Andhra Pradesh is going the way of Telangana. Taking a cue from Telangana state which had formed its new districts soon after its formation in 2014, new districts are finally going to be formed in AP under Jagan’s rule. Although the proposal to create new districts has come before thrice, it hadn’t taken a shape back then. But Jagan is said to be keen on forming new districts to bring ease in administration. It is buzzed that 12 more new districts are under consideration in addition to the existing 13 districts.
As per reports, Jagan has given his consent for increasing the districts of Andhra Pradesh from 13 to 25. It can be noted that YS Jagan had promised during the polls that he will make every Lok Sabha constituency into a district once he forms the government. As Jagan is all set to announce the new districts, his team is working on the administrative process. Officials have started the home-work regarding the proposed new districts.
