While political meetings are important, I hope this isn't just photo ops. Amaravati development has been pending for years - we need action, not just words. The common people are suffering due to delayed projects.

As an Andhra native, I'm cautiously optimistic. TDP and BJP working together could bring much-needed investments to our state. But let's not forget past promises - this time deliverables should be time-bound with proper monitoring.

Interesting to see the family aspect here - politics becoming more personal these days. Hope the focus remains on public welfare rather than just political alliances. The mention of 'personal vendetta' makes me a bit uncomfortable though.

The IT Minister meeting PM Modi is significant for Andhra's tech aspirations 🚀. Hyderabad is already an IT hub - if Amaravati gets similar focus, it could create lakhs of jobs. But execution is key - we've heard big visions before.

While development is important, I hope they also discussed education reforms. As Education Minister, Lokesh should focus more on improving government schools in rural Andhra. That's real vikas that reaches the grassroots.
