Andhra Pradesh Chief Minister N. Chandrababu Naidu all set to incorporate new ideas into the development of the capital city of the state Amaravati. Chandrababu Naidu who in his recent visit to the capital of Kazakhstan, Astana, seems to be really impressed in the way the city has been developed. In the present Amaravati city plan, all government offices are to be located at one zone with no residential or commercial activities.

But, according to this plan, after office hours there will be no activity; it will have a deserted look. But he wants Amaravati, like Astana, which should mix its zones. In Astana, all the government offices are not constructed at one place. After office hours there is much activity in this zone. On the lines of Astana, Mr Naidu wants mixed zones with full activity after office hours also.

He wants to change the present plan and allow residential apartments or individual houses and also commercial activity in the government offices zone. He said to the mayor of Astana that AP wants to work with Astana in the construction of Amaravati city. Also another factor which attracted the Chief Minister is the fact that in Astana, all offices have underground parking facility and no vehicle is parked in front of any office.
