Venkaiah Naidu shielding Chadrababu Naidu, says YSR Congress
Mr Venkaiah Naidu in an interview has openly declared that he has been safeguarding the Chief Minister.
Vijayawada: Chief Minister N. Chandrababu Naidu has totally surrendered to Centre after the cash-for-vote scam and Union minister M. Venkaiah Naidu announcing that he has been coming to the rescue of the Chief Minister shows that the two persons are working in tandem to pursue their personal agenda at the cost of the state interests, YSRC senior leader Bhumana Karunakara Reddy said.
“We will fight for Special Category Status (SCS) and other people’s issues at every available front,” he added. Speaking to reporters on Friday, he said that Mr Venkaiah Naidu in an interview has openly declared that he has been safeguarding the Chief Minister while the opposition party in the state has been raising unnecessary issues.
“It shows that the two-some have a secret agenda and wanted to put SCS to rest but we will not allow that to happen,” he added. Why there was no mention about SCS in the Union Budget and why there was no reaction from TD leadership, he asked and added that it is an indication that the CM has surrendered after the cash-for-vote scam and Mr Venkaiah Naidu has brokered peace and terms for the truce.
