The session saw participation from farmers, local residents and other stakeholders from across the capital region, who submitted grievances related to land administration, development activities and civic concerns. A total of 30 petitions were formally registered during the exercise, reflecting a range of issues linked to the ongoing development and governance processes in Amaravati.
During the interaction, the Commissioner examined individual cases and instructed the concerned departments to take necessary and appropriate action. Officials were advised to address the grievances in a structured manner, with emphasis on responsiveness and administrative coordination. The review formed part of APCRDA's institutional mechanism to periodically assess public concerns and track departmental responses.
The meeting was attended by senior officials across multiple divisions of the authority. These included R. Gopala Krishna Reddy, Engineer-in-Chief; P. Jayasree, Deputy Commissioner and Nodal Officer for the grievance redressal mechanism; N. Vasantha Rayudu, Director (Lands); and G. P. Ramakrishnan, Deputy Director (Survey). Engineering oversight was represented by Chief Engineer Venkateswara Rao, while planning functions were handled by B. Suresh Kumar, Director (Planning), and V. Suneetha, Director (DP).
Legal and social development aspects were also represented, with M. Venkateswara Rao serving as Additional Director (Legal) and B. Srinivasa Rao as Deputy Director for Social Development. Administrative and coordination roles were supported by K. Srinivasa Rao, Assistant Director (CL), along with S. R. N. V. Ramesh and G. Ramaraju, Joint Directors (Communications).
Field-level administration was represented by Special Deputy Collectors, including G. Ravinder, A. G. Chinni Krishna, P. Padmavathi, B. Sai Srinivasa Nayak and M. Seshi Reddy, alongside Tahsildars and other departmental officials. Their presence ensured that grievances requiring local verification or district-level intervention could be addressed with immediate inputs.
The Grievance Day initiative forms a routine administrative process within APCRDA, aimed at facilitating direct engagement between the authority and stakeholders affected by the capital region's development activities. By consolidating petitions and reviewing them in a structured forum, the authority seeks to streamline resolution mechanisms and improve accountability across departments.
Such sessions are particularly significant in the context of Amaravati's ongoing development, where land pooling, infrastructure planning and regulatory processes involve continuous interaction between the administration and local communities. The authority's approach to grievance redressal remains centred on coordination between technical, legal and field-level departments to ensure that issues are addressed within defined administrative frameworks.
