He said a committee was formed for the management of Mahanadu has been entrusted with the tasks of traffic regulation and allotment of parking spaces.

The police also asked TDP leaders to submit no-objection documents from the owners of the selected lands for parking areas. Police personnel claimed that 200 vehicles can be parked on one acre. As per this calculation, 24,000 cars can be parked on 120 acres.

The Mahanadu meeting of representatives and public meeting venues are prepared in Dowleswaram and Vemagiri areas. As both these places are adjacent to the national highway, there will be an increase in traffic, which may make vehicles to get stuck on the national highway.
