Telugu Desam Party leader Chandrababu Naidu thanked PM Narendra Modi for participating in the two public meetings held in Andhra Pradesh ahead of the polls on May 13. The Prime Minister took part in public meetings in Rajahmundry and Anakapalli on Monday and will take part in public meetings in Rajampet and Vijayawada on Wednesday.
Naidu has been confident that the BJP-TDP-Jana Sena combine can win this Assembly elections and took to social media to attack YSRCP’s Jagan Mohan Reddy’s current government. He wrote on X (formerly Twitter), “Thank you to the Prime Minister @narendramodi who participated in Rajahmundry and Anakapalli Sabhas in support of the alliance… apart from exposing the incompetence and corruption of Jagan’s regime… he also gave many guarantees to the people of Andhra Pradesh including the completion of Polavaram and the construction of Amaravati. Also, the people who flocked to Panyam, Anakapalli and Rajahmundry Sabhas confirmed that no one can stop the victory of the alliance. Thanks to everyone who made today’s meeting a success.”
PM Modi, speaking at the meeting, highlighted the stark contrast between promises made and the current state of affairs in Andhra Pradesh. He said, “These people came to power promising prohibition. But today, the state government itself is involved in dealing with liquor and corruption. A large liquor syndicate is operating here. It is said that today, the Andhra government is run by sand mafia and liquor mafia. Corruption is at its peak in the YSR Congress government. However, development works are at a standstill. You may recall, YSR Congress had promised to create three capitals in Andhra Pradesh. However, they couldn’t even deliver one capital in so many years. These people were caught up in a big loot under the guise of three capitals. But even before that, they emptied the treasury of the government. They can only manage corruption; financial management is not within the scope of YSR Congress.”
“This time, Andhra Pradesh has Modi’s guarantee, Chandrababu Ji’s leadership, and our trust in Pawan Kalyan Ji as well. Our victory will form a double-engine government in Andhra Pradesh. I have one more request. Tell everyone here that Modi has greeted them,” PM Modi concluded.
