YS Jagan kickstarts construction of three Oberoi hotels in Andhra Pradesh

Visakhapatnam: Andhra Pradesh Chief Minister YS Jagan Mohan Reddy has virtually laid the foundation stones for the construction of three 7-star Oberoi Hotels at Gandikota, Visakhapatnam, and Tirupati in the state.

In a ground-breaking ceremony in Gandikota on Sunday, senior officials on behalf of the Government and Vikram Oberoi, Managing Director of Oberoi group, exchanged a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) in the presence of the CM. The MoU was signed during an international global summit in March 2023 at Vishakapatnam.

The Chief Minister, while participating in the Bhoomi Puja on Sunday said, “The construction of the Oberoi Hotel and Resort would help Gandikota, known as the Grand Canyon of India, find a place on the world tourism map.” He added, “The project would provide direct and indirect employment to 500 to 800 persons, besides boosting development in and around Gandikota, and the Oberoi Hotel and Resort would play an anchor role in attracting more projects.” The CM has requested Vikram Oberoi to explore the possibility of setting up a golf course in Gandikota.
