The Andhra Pradesh government is accelerating efforts to make Visakhapatnam a slum-free city as part of the Visakhapatnam Economic Region (VER) initiative. This involves identifying slum areas within the GVMC jurisdiction and providing permanent housing. Infrastructure upgrades such as road construction, drain covering, and LED streetlight installation are underway in these areas.

The Capital Region Development Authority (CRDA) has approved a ₹7,380 crore loan from NABARD to accelerate core infrastructure development in Amaravati. This funding will support key institutional buildings, including the construction of Lok Bhavan (Governor's residence) for ₹169 crore and the Andhra Pradesh Judicial Academy for ₹165 crore.
