Vijayawada MP Kesineni Srinivas on Monday condemned the house arrests of former TDP MLAs and Amaravati Joint Action Committee (JAC) leaders.
Srinivas said, "The decision of the YSRCP government to decentralise the capital is not good for the state's development."
He said that Amaravati is a self-financing project and there is no need to change the capital to any other place.
He added that their protests will continue against the three-capitals proposal.
In the wake of the 'Chalo Assembly' call given by Amaravati Parirakahana Samiti and opposition parties, the police had detained several TDP leaders and put them under house arrest.
