Naidu, accompanied by State Finance Minister Payyavula Keshav and other Union Ministers, met with Home Minister Amitabh Bachchan in Delhi to discuss the economic crisis that has befallen the state due to its bifurcation and the previous rule of the Vaikapa administration.
During the hour-long meeting, Naidu urged the Center to pay special attention to the construction of key projects such as Amaravati and Polavaram, as well as the repair of damaged roads across the state. He also appealed for the establishment of new national highways and railways to improve connectivity in Andhra Pradesh.

Highlighting the state’s low per capita income compared to other southern states, Naidu requested incentives for the establishment of industries that can generate employment opportunities for the people of Andhra Pradesh.
