AP should have been divided in 1972, says M Venkaiah Naidu
Venkaiah Naidu hoped the Telugu states' CMs would work in collaboration for the development of states.
Vijayawada: Vice President Venkaiah Naidu on Saturday said the state's development could have been beyond expectations if the bifurcation were done in 1972 during Jai Andhra Movement.
He said injustice was done to AP during bifurcation and that he fought for justice as he could not digest injustice being done to a region.
Speaking at a civic reception organised by the AP government, Mr Venkaiah Naidu he said although he had retired from politics, he was not tired of politics.
He hoped the Telugu states’ CMs would work in collaboration for the development of states and that the Opposition parties would be constructive. He said the felicitations accorded to him would help him remember his responsibilities and duties, while upholding the respect of the Telugus.
