Naidu: Protest on Vanpic under lens

Naidu: Protest on Vanpic under lens

Telugu Desam president N. Chandrababu Naidu on Friday alleged that his padayatra was put under surveillance as some “forces” were trying to weaken the Vanpic movement.
Mr Naidu was referring to a helicopter that was seen crossing the Vanpic lands during his Vanpic Poru Baata programme at Gundayapalem and Patapadu villages of Prakasam district.
Though the TD chief was visibly disappointed with the presence of a small group of people during the programme, he however did not stop his scheduled interaction programme at Gundaya-palem.
Mr Naidu completed the padayatra of 4 km in 30 minutes, interacting with the few farmers and giving interviews to scribes on the way.
The TD chief's disappointed with the poor turnout grew after a local, B. Subba Rao, objected over the removal of the fencing of farmers' lands and said that they (the farmers) “do not ne-ed the help of outsiders”.
Mr Naidu tried to pacify the farmers, saying that the TD was not against development and deman-ded the construction of a port at Motupalli.
