Chandrababu Naidu built Hyderabad. He lost it to the bifurcation. Hyderabad is now in Telangana. He is now building Amravati from scratch. He claims it will be among the top five cities in the world "by every parameter."
He has had financial issues. He has been pestering the government in Delhi for additional funds.
I think he should go to global financial markets.
He acquired land for the city through land pooling. That is a beautiful concept. Similar out of the box thinking could take care of the cash crunches that the building of the city might bring forth.
Amravati should not only be the capital of Andra Pradesh. It should also be a knowledge city that hosts the industries of tomorrow. And it should create and sell bonds and raise money in the global financial markets perhaps at 5% interest rates. A knowledge city should be able to generate enough revenue to pay the interest on the bonds for the near future.

Former Britain PM Tony Blair visits Amaravati, praises Naidu's Real Time Governance
Naidu plans mother of all B-schools in Amaravati. He built the global IT hub of Hyderabad from the ground up, but lost it after Andhra Pradesh split. Not one to wallow over losses, Andhra Pradesh chief minister N Chandrababu Naidu is back to doing what he does best – building world-class institutions like the Indian School of Business (ISB), Hyderabad. ...... is busy drawing up a blueprint to set up a premier institute of excellence in the public private partnership mode to outshine ISB. ....... The institution is proposed to be set up in the Amaravati capital region over nearly 100 acres at a cost of 500 crore. For this, he plans to rope in the best of the best of the global academic world like the London School of Economics, Harvard Kennedy School, National University of Singapore as well as the University of Birmingham as well as the who’s who of the global corporate world. Various UN agencies, the World Bank, ADB and Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation are some of the other intended global partners for the project. ....... The idea is that each of the 10 or more industry partners would contribute 50 crore under their CSR head and would be part of the governing board ....... And Naidu has found the man for the job – Pramath Raj Sinha, founding dean of ISB and co-founder of Ashoka University. ....... The institution of global scale would offer very refined MBAs with specializations in niche segments. “The institute will be an independent, non-partisan and non-profit organisation. It shall perform functions of consulting, primary and applied research, global annual discussion and learning forums, performance evaluation and monitoring and education that provides management skills to the government work force ....... “The CM wanted a world class think-tank in our state to cater to the knowledge needs of governments and businesses of the country and that it should welcome some of the finest academicians and thinkers from across the globe.” ........ The institute’s activities would be in accordance with the State’s Sunrise Vision 2029 framework to transform AP into “a happy, inclusive and globally competitive society”.

It Is Japan Government's Responsibility To Build Amaravati: Chandrababu Naidu "Your (Japan's) Maki and Associates is designing our capital buildings. So it is Japan government's responsibility to build Amaravati. It should be next to Tokyo," Mr Naidu remarked, inaugurating a two-day Andhra Pradesh-Japan Public-Private joint conference in Vijayawada today. ...... In the near future, we should have a direct flight between Amaravati and Tokyo...... Pointing out that 15 Japanese companies were currently doing business in Andhra Pradesh, the chief minister wanted the number to increase ten-fold to 150 in a year. ...... "AP is an innovative state. People here are creative. We are strong in knowledge economy. ....... About 80 delegates from Japanese majors like Mitsubishi, Mitsui, Fuji, Nippon, Toyota, NEC, Toshiba, Sumitomo besides representatives of Japan External Trade Organisation are attending the event, organised by the Andhra Pradesh Economic Development Board.
Chandra Babu Naidu lays foundation stone for grand Venkateswara temple in Amaravati Spread across 25 acres of land on the banks of river Krishna, the mega temple will be equipped with all the modern day facilities. According to state officials, Venkateswara Swami Temple will be designed as per Agama and Vastu Shastra where makers are planning to showcase the rich architectural values from the ancient kingdoms like Pallava, Chola, Chalukya, and Vijayanagar.

A 21st century Indian city Shamshabad will not just be an ordinary airport, Naidu told me. It was to be a hub airport, like Singapore and Dubai. “Singapore and Dubai airports are getting overcrowded. Hyderabad is bang in the middle, between them. It can be a new hub airport, not just for national and international transit passengers but for cargo, aircraft maintenance, export-oriented business, international conferences and exhibitions,” said Naidu. ...... China began building Zhengzhou as an aerotropolis a decade after Naidu thought of Shamshabad-Cyberabad as an aerotropolis of a kind. But then, in 2004, Naidu was voted out of office. ...... Naidu’s planned aerotropolis project remains half done. A very Indian outcome to a very non-Indian idea at the time....... In building Amaravati, the new capital of the new state of AP, he wants a Singapore in India! There is enough talent in coastal Andhra and the globalised Andhra community to make this possible. Naidu’s “Act East” policy of seeking inspiration and capital from Singapore, Japan and China is laudable....... some analysts have charged the land-pooling scheme of being “anti-farmer, anti-poor and socially unjust”, favouring absentee landowners (at the cost of poorer tenant farmers) and speculators, all belonging to favoured castes. ....... Amaravati can become India’s best city of the 21st century — which means a modern, humane, energetic, green and clean, and liveable city with public spaces, facilities and transport. If Naidu delivers, he would earn his place in history.
