Andhra Pradesh’s green vision, reflected in the IGBC Platinum-rated Amaravati master plan, is being implemented through regulatory integration and strategic partnerships.

K Kanna Babu, IAS, Commissioner, APCRDA, highlighted Amaravati’s role as a green capital and announced the plan to certify the upcoming APCRDA Head Office as a Green and Net Zero building. He underlined IGBC’s vital role in helping the state meet its environmental targets.

Vijay Sai Meka, Chairman, IGBC Amaravati Chapter, praised APCRDA for adopting IGBC norms in key projects and setting a national example. IGBC, through its MoU with APCRDA, continues to support sustainable initiatives via training, policy guidance, and stakeholder engagement.
