Poor Chandra Babu Naidu, he seems to be undecided regarding Centre giving special status to Andhra Pradesh. On one occasion he had said that he totally supported those agitating for special status of Andhra Pradesh. On yet another occasion, Babu said special status was just a token gesture and that it would not benefit the state or anyone in it.
He went on to add that though the Centre had given special status to some states, they did not bother to give any funds to them and hence said that merely giving special status without releasing funds did not serve any purpose.
But it is a new tune definitely as it is not clear as to why Babu is trying to stress the uselessness of getting special status without getting any funds. So is Babu trying to divert attention since his political ally BJP is in power at the Centre? While that is unclear as yet, Babu says that the Centre must ensure that the development of Andhra Pradesh happens on par with other states.
