What (Which) will be the new Capital of Andhra Pradesh State...?

Though the Coastal and Rayalaseema People's strikes and struggles for a united Andhra Pradesh, opposing the bifurcation of Andhra Pradesh State and formation of new Telangana State is continuing for about 10 days, there is some hectic lobbying taking place for winning the NEW Capital for the New Andhra State.

As per the agreement of the Central Government, Hyderabad will remain as the common Capital of both the states for a period of 10 years, leaders and people of many Coastal Andhra and Rayalaseema cities are trying to get their city as the future Capital of A.P.

Though there are many cities wishing to become the capital, Vijayawada, Visakhapatnam and Kurnool are in the fore-front pushing back the aspirations of Tirupati, Rajahmundry and Ongole.

Many people feel that Vijayawada (along with Guntur) is the best choice to become the the Capital of New Andhra Pradesh State in par with Hyderabad-Secunderabad as it is centrally located and has all eligibility criteria.

Some opinion polls conducted by some Telugu TV channels also support this argument.

Though the people of Kurnool have a valid reason of being the past Capital of A.P., more people of the Coastal areas are not in favour of that claim.
