The state government is focusing on completing major infrastructure projects within stipulated timelines to strengthen investment and economic growth, Infrastructure and Investments Department Secretary Kona Sasidhar said at the Collectors’ Conference on Thursday.
He directed collectors to prioritise land acquisition, land transfer, legal cases, local clearances and inter-departmental coordination to speed up project execution. Land acquisition and alienation covering 25,662 acres for ports, fishing harbours, fish landing centres and airports are to be expedited.
The government is developing greenfield ports, fishing harbours and shipbuilding facilities, with targeted completion dates of March 2027 for Ramayapatnam Port, May 2027 for Mulapeta, December 2027 for Machilipatnam, and September 2028 for Kakinada Gateway.
