The Andhra Pradesh Capital Region Development Authority (abbreviated as APCRDA) is an urban planning agency of the Andhra Pradesh Capital Region, in the Indian state of Andhra Pradesh, India. The APCRDA was established under the Andhra Pradesh Capital Region Development Authority Act, 2014 (dissolved in 2020 and reestablished in 2021). The authority has a jurisdictional area of 8,352.69 km2 (3,224.99 sq mi), covering the districts of Guntur, Eluru, NTR, Krishna, Palnadu, and Bapatla.

History

The APCRDA was formerly known as AMDA and the former was VGTM Urban Development Authority (VGTM UDA), which was formed in 1978 with an area of 1,954 km2 (754 sq mi).[1] In 2012, it was expanded to 7,063 km2 (2,727 sq mi).[2] Post bifurcation of Andhra Pradesh, it was defunct and was renamed as APCRDA.[3] The head office of the authority is located at Lenin Centre in Vijayawada.[4] It also has three sub-registrar offices at Thullur, Ananthavaram, and Mandadam.[5] The authority has a jurisdictional area of 8,352.69 km2 (3,224.99 sq mi),[6] covering the districts of Guntur and Krishna,[3] including 217 km2 (84 sq mi) of the state capital, Amaravati.[7]

AMRDA

In August 2020, the Andhra Pradesh legislative assembly passed the Andhra Pradesh decentralisation and inclusive development of all regions act. It provided for limiting Amaravati as legislative capital while naming Vizag as executive capital and Kurnool as judicial capital.[8] Thus government's attempt to plan for three capital cities led to the dissolution of APCRDA and formation of Amaravati Metropolitan Region Development Area(AMRDA).[9] The events leading to this decision resulted in widespread and continuing protests by the farmers of Amaravati.[10] The act has been challenged in the Andhra Pradesh High Court, which ordered to maintain status quo until the court completes its hearing. The government, led by Y. S. Jagan Mohan Reddy, withdrew the act when the High Court hearing reached the final stage. The chief minister said that his government would bring a better and more complete bill.[11] As the government withdrew the GO, the APCRDA was restored.
