Andhra Pradesh Chief Minister Chandrababu Naidu refuted claims by the YSR Congress Party that the coalition government is engaging in ‘credit theft.’ Naidu emphasized that significant development and welfare programs have been initiated under the alliance’s governance, with some attempting to wrongfully take credit for these efforts. Speaking at a Telugu Desam Party (TDP) meeting on the occasion of the late party founder N. T. Rama Rao’s death anniversary, Naidu addressed the accusations of ‘credit theft’ by the YSRCP.
Condemning the political tactics of conspiracies and propaganda, Naidu urged party members to be vigilant and counter such malicious campaigns effectively. He highlighted the YSRCP’s alleged deceptive practices and criticized their attempts to claim credit for initiatives they were not involved in, including investments like AM Green’s $10 billion in Kakinada and the establishment of the Civil Aviation University.
Naidu asserted that key projects such as Cyberabad, Kia, Google, Bhogapuram, and Green Energy were spearheaded by the TDP, accusing the YSRCP of appropriating credit for these accomplishments. He also defended the TDP’s role in acquiring land for the Bhogapuram airport and criticized the YSRCP for neglecting projects initiated by the previous government. Additionally, Naidu reaffirmed Amaravati as the capital of Andhra Pradesh, dismissing derogatory remarks made by the YSRCP about the city’s development.
The Chief Minister warned against character assassination on social media platforms, emphasizing a zero-tolerance policy towards unethical practices in politics. He underscored the TDP’s stance against factional politics and its commitment to maintaining peace and stability in the Palnadu region, asserting that divisive tactics will not be tolerated under his administration.
