Time to send PM Modi home, says N Chandrababu Naidu

Vijayawada: Telugu Desam supremo and Chief Minister N. Chandrababu Naidu has said that time has come to send Prime Minister Mr Narendra Modi home. Addressing a teleconference of party leaders on Friday, he said, “Save India, Save Democracy slogan is reverberating across the country.” He added, “Country can’t tolerate anti-people dispensation. Farmers, youngsters are not with BJP and allies and they will face a rout in upcoming polls.”

“The nation will not tolerate anti-people’s policies. Opposing Modi is a democratic compulsion and opposing the BJP is a political compulsion. The farmers, women, and youth had distanced themselves from YSRC and BJP. And during the recent elections, the BJP suffered humiliating defeat in five States. The surveys have now made it clear that there is opposition to Modi government now. And in the coming elections, there is no doubt that the BJP and its puppet-parties would be defeated. It’s time to send Modi home,” he said.

Mr Naidu further said, “Leaders are leaving YSRC due to Jagan’s ego. Vangavati Radhakrishna and Adi Seshagiri Rao left YSRC expressing their distress over Jagan. A leader should not be egoistic. Humility and obedience towards the people, is a leadership character. Our leadership will survive only with public satisfaction. The TD has a 65 lakh cadre army. There is no other regional party with such huge strength. All should work together to build our party as a super power.”

“The Centre will have to give Rs 16,000 crore (deficit budget) to AP, I have written a letter to the Prime Minister. BJP leaders in Centre are neglecting AP. Jagan Mohan Reddy is not questioning Modi, he has become a replica of irresponsibility. Jayaprakash Narayana Committee said Centre has to pay Rs 85,000 crore. Pawan Kalyan’s JFC said Rs 75,000 crore. The whole country has stood for justice to AP, 15 parties raised the issue in Parliament and 22 parties demanded this at the recent Kolkata rally. But in our State, the BJP and the YSRC are not responsible and in the upcoming elections, people will teach a lesson to both BJP and YSRC,” added the CM.

The Chief Minister, who is also national president of TD, said that the party should win the people’s support. Each worker should garner an additional 10 votes every day.  

“We could provide so many posts only because we are in power. If we win in the coming elections, there will be more posts, and much more recognition. What we did during the past five years is great history,” the Chief Minister said.

And what we will do in the coming five years will be another historic march. We can develop the State twice as much and take up the poor people’s welfare four-fold,” the CM said.
