Andhra ministers slam Rajinikanth for praising Chandrababu Naidu

[ad_1]
Amaravati: Andhra Pradesh ministers and leaders of ruling YSR Congress Party (YSRCP) have come down heavily on Tamil superstar Rajinikanth after the latter praised former chief minister and Telugu Desam Party (TDP) president N. Chandrababu Naidu.
Tourism minister R. K. Roja slammed Rajninkanth for the praise lavished on Naidu. Roja, a former actor, called the superstar’s comments ridiculous.
While addressing centenary celebrations of TDP founder and former chief minister N. T. Rama Rao at Vijayawada on Friday, Rajinikanth had heaped praise on Naidu for his vision and the progress achieved by Hyderabad when he was the chief minister of undivided Andhra Pradesh.

Roja reminded Rajnikanth that Naidu was the chief minister of undivided Andhra Pradesh till 2004 and during the last 20 years, Hyderabad has seen development without Naidu.
Water Resources Minister Ambati Rambabu described Rajinikanth as a “coward”. He said the actor announced his entry into politics but later ran away. “Rajinikanth is not competent to speak about politics,” he said.
The minister recalled that Rajinikanth stood by Naidu even when the latter removed his father-in-law NTR from power.
YSRCP leader Kodali Nani remarked that Rajinikanth may be a hero in Tamil Nadu but he is a zero in Andhra Pradesh. “Do we need to hear from Rajinikanth about Chandrababu Naidu,” he asked.
Nani said the Tamil super star spoke a lot about the great qualities of NTR. “I want to ask him why he did not come to help NTR when he was attacked at Viceroy Hotel in Hyderabad,” he asked, referring to the Naidu-led revolt against NTR in 1995.

The YSRCP leader said that nobody is ready to believe what all Rajinikanth said about Naidu’s vision. He also remarked that the actor does shoots for films for three days and spends six days in hospital.
Calling Naidu a visionary, Rajinikanth has said that it was Naidu’s vision of developing Andhra Pradesh that would take the state to great heights in the country in the coming years.
The veteran actor said that Naidu is planning to develop Andhra Pradesh with a Vision 2047, and if that project gets implemented, Andhra will reach great heights in India. He prayed to the almighty to give Naidu the strength and power to implement it.
Rajinikanth claimed that Naidu had spoken about the Information Technology (IT) industry boom in the late 1990s when no one had even thought about it.
The actor said Naidu spoke about Vision 2020 in 1996 and how the IT industry would become a boom. Business tycoons like Bill Gates also appreciated Naidu and then set up their companies, he added.

Viveka’s murder a case study for police officers: Chandrababu Naidu

[ad_1]
Kadapa: Telugu Desam Party (TDP) national President N. Chandrababu Naidu said on Tuesday that the murder of Andhra Pradesh Chief Minister Jagan Mohan Reddy’s paternal uncle Y.S. Vivekananda Reddy is a case study for police officers.
The former Chief Minister felt that those who murdered Vivekananda Reddy should be punished sooner than later.
Addressing the TDP Zone-5 meeting at Kadapa, he said that it is the responsibility of everyone to punish in the people’s court those who resort to killings and try to escape from punishment. “How peace rallies can be taken out when those who are involved in murder are summoned for inquiry,” the TDP supremo asked, referring to a rally organised in Pulivendula town on Friday when Kadapa MP Y.S. Avinash Reddy’s father Y.S. Bhaskar Reddy was arrested in the case.

He said that the entire murder case of the brother of a former Chief Minister, who is also a former MP and MLA and the paternal uncle of Chief Minister Jagan Mohan Reddy, is a mystery.
“When the daughter of the victim wanted a post-mortem on the body, then the blame was passed on me in the name of Narakasura Raktha Charitra. Every attempt was made to escape from the murder case even by resorting to caste politics and this culture started only in Pulivendula,” Naidu said.
Recalling how the gag order was obtained from the court and how a CBI probe was demanded into the murder, the former Chief Minister said that ultimately Jagan Mohan reddy used this in the last Assembly polls as a weapon besides the “chicken knife” drama. Now those involved in the murder are stooping so low that they are even threatening the CBI, he remarked.
Terming Jagan Mohan Reddy “a demon haunting the state”, Naidu claimed that he is minting money in the name of pressing buttons. The total amount of corruption of Jagan Mohan Reddy, his cabinet ministers and his party MLAs is a whooping Rs 4 lakh crore, the TDP supremo alleged and said that the financial burden imposed on the people in the past four years is Rs 5 lakh crore while the state’s total debt burden is Rs 10 lakh crore.
Chandrababu Naidu also said that after the Legislative Council polls, the TDP has been marching ahead in an excellent manner in 108 Assembly segments.

Do not put your faith in Jagan: TDP chief Chandrababu Naidu tells people of Andhra

[ad_1]
Nellore: On a day the ruling YSRCP launched a massive outreach programme under ‘Jagananne Maa Bhavishatyu’ (Jagan is our future), Telugu Desam Party chief N Chandrababu Naidu urged the people of Andhra Pradesh not to repose faith on Chief Minister Y S Jagan Mohan Reddy.
Naidu made these remarks while addressing a TDP meeting in Nellore and declared that Reddy is not the future of Andhra Pradesh.
“Jagan is not your faith nor…your future,” remarked Naidu, as per a statement issued on Friday night, adding that people have to rethink on the trajectory that the state is moving in.

He observed that the youth are getting addicted to drugs and abandoning activities useful for their families.
During his visit in Nellore, the former chief minister took a selfie in front of some rows of AP Township and Infrastructure Development Corporation (APTIDCO) homes, questioning why these houses are not yet allotted to the beneficiaries and called on TDP leaders to challenge Reddy on what he has done for the people and the state.
Naidu alleged the Chief Minister imposed a burden of Rs 10.5 lakh crore on the people of the state in the past four years, including levying tax on garbage.
He noted that it was the TDP which laid the foundation for welfare in the state when former Andhra Pradesh CM and party founder N T Rama Rao had launched the Rs 2 per kg rice scheme and houses for the poor. Naidu also highlighted the ‘largest’ number of welfare schemes rolled out by his government in Andhra Pradesh between 2014 and 2019.
The Leader of the Opposition highlighted that Reddy has completely neglected the Polavaram multi-purpose irrigation project.

Andhra Pradesh: Chandrababu Naidu’s selfie challenge to Jagan

[ad_1]
Amaravati: Telugu Desam Party (TDP) President N. Chandrababu Naidu on Friday threw a selfie challenge at Chief Minister Y.S. Jagan Mohan Reddy.
The former Chief Minister took to Twitter to post selfies taken in front of the houses for the poor built by his TDP government and dared Jagan Mohan Reddy to post selfies of the houses built during the four-year rule of YSR Congress Party (YSRCP).
Naidu posted selfies with the houses built by the Township Infrastructure Development Corporation (TIDCO) in Nellore.

“See Y S Jagan. These are thousands of TIDCO houses built for the poor in Nellore alone by our government. This is a living example of lakhs of TIDCO houses built in the state,” tweeted Naidu.
“How many houses have you built in these four years? Where are the houses you mentioned? Can you answer?” the TDP President asked the Chief Minister with a hashtag selfie challenge to Jagan.
Naidu’s selfie challenge came close on the heels of his son and TDP General Secretary Nara Lokesh posting selfies with the projects built during the TDP’s rule.
During his ongoing padyatra in Anantapur district, Lokesh posted several selfies with the projects and the development achieved during the TDP rule.
On March 30, Lokesh posted a selfie in front of the Kia car plant which was set up when the TDP was in power. “You can’t even dream of bringing a company like this to Andhra Pradesh,” Lokesh told Jagan.

TDP should regain past glory in Telangana: Chandrababu Naidu

[ad_1]
Hyderabad: Telugu Desam Party (TDP) national president and former Andhra Pradesh chief minister Nara Chandrababu Naidu on Wednesday called upon the party leaders and activists to work hard in bringing the TDP’s past glory in Telangana. Stating that while there is an immediate need for rebuilding the party in AP, Naidu added that he wanted all the 10 crore people in both Telugu states to become partners in improving economic conditions of the poor.
Addressing a gathering at the Exhibition Grounds in Hyderabad, he was speaking at te TDP’s 41st foundation day. “The TDP is a historical necessity for the people of Telangana. All the welfare schemes in both the Telugu states will be continued even after the TDP comes back to power. Assets will be created in these two states and they will be distributed to the poor,” Naid added.
The TDP’ chief’s remarks are interesting considering the fact that the TDP has been virtually wiped out in Telangana. While it managed to win 15 seats and two MP seats in the 2014 elections, it could win only two MLA seats in the following 2018 state polls (in an alliance with the Congress). There has been talk of the TDP’s revival here in the state. However, political pundits are skeptical.
Recalling that this is the day when the state’s history was rewritten, the party supremo said that the late NT Rama Rao founded the TDP only for the progress of the Telugus. “The TDP was born from the self-respect of the Telugus. It was the Late NTR who wanted the educated to be in politics and thus he engineers, doctors and other graduates,” Naidu said.
Naidu asked how Hyderabad was 25 years ago and how the city is now, observing that it is the IT industry that brought in such a huge change in the lifestyle of the citizens. “Mr Chandrababu said that he worked hard to develop Cyberabad and other areas of Hyderabad. He also said that people”People laughed at me when he wanted mobile phones to be introduced in the country but today no person leads his or her life without the hand phone.

TDP filled light in lives of Telugus: Chandrababu Naidu

[ad_1]
Hyderabad: The Telugu Desam Party (TDP) national president and former chief minister N. Chandrababu Naidu said on Wednesday that his party filled light in the lives of Telugu people.
He greeted Telugu people on the 41st formation day of the TDP and recalled that the party took birth with the slogan of Telugu self-respect.
Naidu appealed to every citizen to strive to achieve the goal of TDP founder N.T. Rama Rao.
It was on March 29, 1982 that N.T. Rama Rao, a famous actor popularly known as NTR, floated TDP on the slogan of Telugu self-respect. The party created a record of sorts by coming to power in then undivided Andhra Pradesh within nine months.
Meanwhile, Naidu’s son and TDP general secretary Nara Lokesh took to Twitter to greet people on the 41st formation day of the TDP. He termed TDP as a symbol of self-respect of Telugu people and a sign of their political consciousness.
Lokesh said the yellow flag stood up for the oppressed classes in tune with the NTR’s ideology. The TDP gave hope to the poor and the weaker sections. The young leader also claimed that TDP has an indelible imprint on the development of various sectors. He said that lakhs of workers are the real strength of the TDP.
Lokesh stated that with the blessings of NTR and under the guidance of Chandrababu Naidu, the TDP will continue to work for its goal of public welfare.
Meanwhile, Chandrababu Naidu will address a meeting of TDP delegates in Hyderabad later Wednesday. After paying floral tributes at NTR Ghat, the TDP chief will reach Exhibition Grounds to address the meeting.

After a long gap, TDP held its politburo meeting in Hyderabad on Tuesday. The meeting presided over by Naidu decided to allot 40 per cent of the party tickets to youth in the next Assembly elections in both the Telugu-speaking states. Naidu asked the politburo members to prepare the party’s manifesto with the objective to transform the lives of the poor.
The politburo discussed various issues pertaining to both Andhra Pradesh and Telangana. It decided to highlight anti-people, anti-farmer and anti-youth policies being pursued by the governments in both the Telugu states.

Chandrababu urges PM Modi to order probe into phone tapping

[ad_1]
Amaravati: Telugu Desam Party (TDP) national president N. Chandrababu Naidu has written to Prime Minister Narendra Modi to order an enquiry into the alleged tapping of phones of leaders of opposition parties, lawyers, journalists and activists by the YSRCP government in Andhra Pradesh.
The former Andhra Pradesh chief minister appealed to the Prime Minister to order an enquiry by a competent body of the Central government to check phone tapping.
He alleged that the YSR Congress Party (YSRCP) government was violating fundamental rights guaranteed under Articles 19 and 21 of the Constitution.
“Ever since the YSRCP came to power, there has been a systematic and concerted attack on the democratic institutions in the state. Initially, the process of governance was completely derailed by attacking the investors and policies of previous regimes. This was followed by attacks on institutions like the State Election Commission and the Andhra Pradesh Public Service Commission (APPSC). Concomitantly, the ruling YSRCP has been attacking and threatening leaders of opposition parties, advocates, media persons, and social activists, among others, through various deceitful means. One such modus operandi that the ruling party has chosen is by illegally and unlawfully tapping the phones,” reads the letter.
“It appears that the YSRCP-led government has been tapping phones illegally for its own political gains. Further, we are afraid it is being done through illegal software and unlawfully. This is all the more dangerous as in the long run it could pose a direct threat to national security. With such sophisticated technology in the hands of miscreants will not only violate the right to privacy of individuals, but also would lead to compromise of people in high places by bringing them under blackmail threats,” Naidu wrote.
The TDP chief alleged that apparently the YSRCP has now even targeted the judiciary, the third pillar of democracy, as it is facing hurdles from the judiciary.
“It appears that private persons are also illegally tapping phones using cutting edge technology and tools. We are afraid that if such illegal phone tapping goes unchecked, it would pose a serious threat to the integrity and security of the nation. Such illegal and unlawful practices by governments or private persons, if unrestrained, would lead to destruction of institutions that were built painstakingly over a period of time. In the long run, such nefarious activities would result in the breakdown of democratic values and freedom of speech, leading to jungle raj. In this backdrop, we appeal to you to initiate immediate and stern action in order to check any further unlawful activities (phone tapping) by the ruling party and private persons in Andhra Pradesh,” he added.
Naidu had written to the Prime Minister on the backdrop of allegations by two MLAs of YSRCP that their phones were being tapped.
