Why it matters beyond the residents
Several thousand government families living in the capital, rather than commuting from Vijayawada and Guntur, is what turns the interim complex into a town: schools, clinics, shops and rental demand follow. The 2 May 2025 relaunch included housing for 5,200 families in the projects launched that day.
