He even sarcastically questioned opposition, Is Visakhapatnam a wild forest to get scared?" Rajendranath further added that Amaravati Metropolitan Region will be the legislative capital of the state. Visakhapatnam Metropolitan Region will be the executive capital, which means the secretariat will be shifted from Amaravati to the port city and Kurnool will be the judicial capital.

He Criticized the Chandrababu Naidu government for making numerous manipulations in allotting lands to private companies and government agencies.
