Under the three-capital model proposed by the YSR Congress Party (YSRCP) in 2019, the city of Kurnool was designated as the judicial capital of Andhra Pradesh.1
This model also proposed Visakhapatnam as the executive capital and Amaravati as the legislative capital. However, following the 2024 electoral victory of the Telugu Desam Party (TDP), the state has reaffirmed its commitment to establishing Amaravati as the sole capital of Andhra Pradesh.1
