ONGOLE, MAY 11

Telugu Desam president, Mr Nara Chandrababu Naidu started the TD byelection campaign in Kandukur under Nellore parliament constituency in support of his party candidate Mr V. Venugopal Reddy on Friday. Mr Naidu leveled allegations against both the Congress and YSR Congress during road show meets. He alleged that Nellore YSRC candidate, Mr Mekapati Rajmohan Reddy was a benami for YSRC president Mr Y. S. Jaganmohan Reddy for various businesses hence he had resigned as MP and joined YSRC. Admitting migration of TD leaders into the YSRC, he clarified that some leaders attracted by money had shifted to YSRC but activists were with party.

Mr Naidu alleged that Congress aspirant, Mr T. Subbarami Reddy was spending huge amounts to attract voters but people are angry with Congress corruption, so they would vote for TD. He said that minister for urban development, Mr Manugunta Mahidhar Reddy was elected as MLA from Kandukur but never worked for constituency development. He ridiculed that Congress office Gandhi bhavan at Hyderabad switched into Brandi bhavan due to Pradesh Congress Committee president, Mr Botsa Satyanarayana Rao’s involvement in liquor business. Mr Naidu alleged that chief minister, Mr Nallari Kirankumar Reddy had totally failed to provide good governance to state public. He commented Congress became thieves’ party and YSRC dacoit’s party. He alleged that Mr Mahidhar Reddy had occupied government and private lands in his constituency in benami names.  

Former CM lamented that as many as 200 TD activists were killed in the state in the Congress government which show total failure of law and order. He termed Rajiv Arogyasri as largesse for corporate hospitals and no use for poor people. He announced launching of a new health insurance scheme replacing Arogyasri by TD.

TD aspirant, Mr Venugopal Reddy, former MLA, Mr Divi Sivaram and others participated in the road show. Earlier Mr Naidu conducted a meeting with party leaders and activists and tried to boost up their morals through a provocative 45 minutes speech.
