The “NTR Sujala”, the scheme for supply of safe drinking water to rural habitations, is also likely to be cleared on the occasion.

It is also expected that Chandrababu may also announce the location of the Capital for the new state, though Hyderabad will be the “common capital” for Telangana and AP for ten years.

A strong police force of 10,000 personnel is being deployed for security for the as a crowd of over five lakh people, including about 10,000 VVIPs and VIPs, is expected.  State Chief Secretary I Y R Krishna Rao, DGP J V Ramudu and top IAS and IPS officials are personally monitoring the security and other arrangements at the venue as it is a state function.

“Foolproof arrangements have been made for the event,” they said.

Since the venue abuts the busy Chennai-Kolkata National Highway, special arrangements are being made to ensure there is no traffic disruption.
