Now coming with our subject point of view, some consultants expresses that due to this present AP shape this state will dominate and will become very rich in future.

We opinioned that the shapes may not be calculated for the states or countries, if there is a barricade or boundary wall or Compound Wall for the entire state then we have to calculate the shape.

If there is a way from different places from different corners, how can we determine. The shape is excellent as per vaastu, no doubt on it. Please note that after dissolution only Andhra Pradesh state seen massacre Hud Hud force cyclone.

After one week also Government is unable to calculate the estimation of loss. So what we opinioned that the shape may not be the countable point, the boundaries or barricade may be counts with Vastu.
