The Andhra Pradesh government has cleared a ₹7,469‑crore investment to boost urban infrastructure under the HAM programme, marking a major push for city development.
The state cabinet of Andhra Pradesh has given the green light to a massive urban infrastructure programme worth ₹7,469 crore. The approval was announced as part of the HAM (Housing and Urban Development) initiative, which aims to modernise city services and facilities.
The entire outlay is earmarked for a range of urban projects, though the specific components have not been detailed publicly. By channeling such a large sum, the government intends to accelerate the development of essential infrastructure in its cities.
Officials said the investment is expected to generate significant employment opportunities and attract private sector participation. The move also aligns with the broader national agenda of strengthening urban centres across India.
Implementation will be overseen by the state’s urban development department, which will coordinate with local bodies to ensure timely execution of the projects. The funding is slated to be released in phases over the coming financial years.
