There are fears and apprehensions that YCP leader Jaganmohan Reddy has no interest in Amaravati as the continuing capital city of AP. There is a feeling Jagan may consider moving the Capital city to Donakonda in Prakasam district. Prior to the 2014 elections itself, the YCP leaders bought huge tracts of lands in Donakonda area but unfortunately their party met with a defeat in the hands of TDP.

To clear any doubts in this regard, YCP leaders are giving statements that Jagan will continue Amaravati as the permanent Capital even after 2019 election. The same is going to be mentioned in the YCP manifesto also. YCP leaders feel this will create some confidence among the voters of Guntur, Krishna and Godavari districts who are especially emotionally attached to Amaravati. They are saying that Jagan has already got his own residence and office at Tadepalli near Amaravati. This assurance is aimed at removing doubts among the public. But Donakonda remains a painful memory for the YCP leaders who bought lands there and who suffered heavy losses. Also, Rayalaseema YCP leaders kept lot of hopes on Donakonda as it is nearer to them and more easier for exercising their control.
