Asking people of Andhra Pradesh to vote NDA for a double- engine government in the state and also at the center, Prime Minister Narendra Modi says that both YCP and Congress parties are same, moreover their leadership is from the same family.
He addressed a mammoth election rally at Boppudi village, near Chilakaluripet of the state. This was the prime minister’s first rally after the Election Commission announced the Lok Sabha poll schedule on Saturday.
After a gap of ten years he shared dais with TDP chief Chandrababu Naidu and Jana Sena chief Pawan Kalyan. Modi said that the NDA is strengthening day by day with the return of several new partners like Chandrababu Naidu. He expressed confidence that NDA will get more than 400 Lok Sabha seats, besides forming a government in Andhra Pradesh.
Accusing that YS Jaganmohan Reddy government locked in corruption, ignored development of the state for the last five years, he alleged that the Congress party in the state is intending to divide anti- government votes in the state, so as to help YCP to return power.
Lamenting that ministers in Andhra Pradesh are competing with each other in corruption, he deplored that during Jagan’s regime the state is behind in growth, he said only return of NDA government will ensure intensive developmental activities during next five years.
A double-engine government of the National Democratic Alliance (NDA) in Andhra Pradesh will ensure speedy development of the state and asserted that the NDA’s aim is for ‘Viksit Bharat’ and to build ‘Viksit Andhra Pradesh’
.
Modi said the NDA moves ahead, taking into account regional aspirations and national progress, and during the third term after the polls, the country will take many more big decisions. He claimed that during the last 10 years, around 25 crore people were lifted out of poverty. Attacking the Congress party, the prime minister said the agenda of the grand old party is to ‘use and throw’ its alliance partners.
