VIJAYAWADA: The Andhra Pradesh Government is taking up an ambitious plan to develop Hyderabad-Vijayawada-Visakhapatnam Growth Corridor (HVVGC) to give thrust to industrial growth in Ranga Reddy, Hyderabad, Nalgonda, Krishna, West Godavari, East Godavari and Visakhapatnam districts. Guntur, Khammam and Warangal also would come under the influence of the project.

The Government has identified six area-specific industrial hubs extending over 10,000 hectares to attract investments.
