Question
As per the Government of India notification in April 2026, which city has been formally notified as the sole and permanent capital of Andhra Pradesh?
Solution
In April 2026, the Ministry of Law & Justice formally notified Amaravati as the exclusive capital of Andhra Pradesh after both houses of Parliament passed the Andhra Pradesh Reorganisation (Amendment) Act, 2026, which received presidential assent. The amendment inserted the word “Amaravati” into the APR Act, 2014, nullifying the previous proposal of three capitals (Amaravati as legislative capital, Visakhapatnam as executive capital, and Kurnool as judicial capital).
