Telugu Desam Party president and Andhra Pradesh chief minister N Chandrababu Naidu on Wednesday came up with a peculiar demand: that Telangana Rashtra Samithi president and chief minister K Chandrasekhar Rao should include special category status to Andhra Pradesh in the TRS manifesto for the current elections.
Though the TRS has already clarified to the Election Commission that it will not bring out any election manifesto for the ongoing Parliament elections, Naidu made this demand, while taking part in the elections in Udayagiri constituency in Nellore district.
He sought to know whether YSR Congress party chief Y S Jaganmohan Reddy would convince KCR to include the special category status to AP in the TRS manifesto.
“If Jagan is sincere, he should secure a no-objection certificate from the TRS president for granting SCS to AP,” he said.
He reminded that the Congress had announced the special category status to AP on the floor of Parliament and he BJP had supported it and even demanded it for 10 years.
“But Narendra Modi has betrayed the state by denying the status. The TRS leaders strongly opposed the special status to AP, but now KCR says he is not against it. If KCR and Jagan are sincere in this regard, it should be included in the TRS manifesto,” he said.
Naidu accused Jagan of submitting a daily progress report to the TRS president and was taking financial support from the latter to buy votes.
“However, nothing will happen to the TDP as long as it had the support of the people,” he said.
