The delegation first met senior officials at the Amaravati Secretariat, including Municipal Administration and Urban Development Principal Secretary S.

During the meeting, APCRDA officials explained the ongoing efforts to develop Amaravati as a sustainable and modern capital city with integrated infrastructure and improved living standards. Officials said the city is being planned with a focus on environmentally conscious development, public infrastructure and long-term urban growth. Amaravati has been positioned by the Andhra Pradesh government as a key administrative and economic hub since the capital city project was revived and construction activity restarted over the past few years.
The British delegation later visited several ongoing infrastructure projects, including the iconic towers being developed as part of the Amaravati Government Complex, the gravity canal network and campsite offices. Officials briefed the visitors on the construction progress, engineering methods being adopted and the environmental measures being implemented across various projects.
The delegation also held discussions with Amaravati Growth & Infrastructure Corporation Limited Managing Director SVR Srinivas at the APCRDA office in Rayapudi. During the interaction, the officials presented investment opportunities being planned across sectors such as education, healthcare, tourism and riverfront development.
Officials further informed the delegation that several educational and medical institutions have already started operations in Amaravati, while additional projects are expected to come up as infrastructure work progresses across the capital region.
