The Andhra Pradesh Tourism Development Corporation (APTDC) has put all ongoing tourism projects on the fast track.
APTDC is building a beach resort at Bhimula Vari (BV) Palem coast near Tada in Nellore district at a cost of Rs 13 crore. Resort cottages are being designed such that tourists can enjoy the ocean and sandy beaches. It is located on National Highway 16 and close to Chennai and Bangalore. There are 15 cottages, a swimming pool and play area for children.
The project was sanctioned in 2017. The Centre released nearly Rs 70 crore for tourism projects in Nellore district. However, the works got delayed.
