Finally, after four months, TDP chief Chandrababu Naidu found yet another reason for his defeat. But, this reason too, is only his doubt and not a confirmation.
The other day, while participating in Mahatma Gandhi Jayanti celebrations at the party office in Guntur, Chandrababu Naidu said he had spent most of his time during the last five years in working for the development of the State.
While keeping himself busy for the State development, he said he could not find time for the party work. He could not spare time to interact with the leaders and cadre during the last five years.
“Had I kept the State interests aside and spent more time for the party, we would have won the 2019 election,” Chandrababu Naidu said with a question mark on his own remark.
Perhaps, this was one of the several other reasons that the TDP is finding in its post-poll analysis since the humiliating defeat in 2019 elections.
The TDP had lost two successive elections in 2004 and 2009. But, after every defeat, the party could analyse and find the reason for the defeat.
In 2004, the party found that Naidu’s CEO style had to be changed and there were repeated requests from the leaders and cadre that he should change.
Accordingly, he changed his style and was available for the party in NTR Bhavan in Hyderabad.
In 2009, the party found that its manifesto should have equal or rather more importance to agriculture. They felt that IT alone would not save the party or would not get votes. He changed the party manifesto.
In the run for the 2014 elections, Naidu brought more sops for the farmers, moving away from the IT, and had even promised total loan waiver, which was one of the reasons for his victory in 2014.
But, Naidu, with all his 40 years of political experience, is yet to find a reason for his 2019 defeat.
He is still in search of the reason and one of the reasons he found now is that he had no time to spare for the party between 2014-2019.
Will he be successful in this search and find the correct reason for his defeat, at least before the 2024 elections!?
