Nellore Residents Object to Gudur District Proposal
The government is thinking about changing the districts in Nellore.
Some people in Nellore are upset because they think their district might lose important places and businesses to a new district called Gudur.
They are worried that their district will become less important.
People in Gudur, on the other hand, have been asking to have their own district.
One politician says the changes are not fair and based on politics, not what makes the most sense for people.
Nellore residents express strong opposition to the proposed merging of Sarvepalli constituency into the new Gudur district.
The plan could result in Nellore district losing key assets like Krishnapatnam Port and parts of its industrial belt.
Nellore citizens fear the move will diminish their district's industrial base and strategic importance.
Gudur residents have long sought district status or merger with Nellore for administrative reasons.
A senior politician criticizes district reorganization based on parliamentary constituencies, citing instability.
