CBN against Modi for muslims

Telugu Desam Party (TDP) chief N.

Speaking to a large gathering of Muslims in Nellore, Naidu assured that there would be no compromise on providing reservations to Muslims in Andhra Pradesh. He pledged to engage senior advocates to safeguard their rights and accused the YSR Congress-led government of spreading misinformation about the repeal of Muslim reservations under an NDA regime in AP. Naidu emphasized that the NDA has never allowed any injustice towards any community.

Naidu announced several promises to Muslim voters, including financial assistance of ₹1 lakh for every Haj pilgrim, free bus travel for women, three free cooking gas cylinders annually per family, and completing the remaining work on Gurukula schools for Muslim students within six months of an NDA victory.

Addressing another meeting in Kowthalam of Kurnool district, Naidu criticized the ruling YSR Congress for favoring members of the Reddy community in selecting candidates. He also promised to address migration issues, construct a 100-bed hospital, and resume construction of irrigation projects in the region. Regarding stalled projects, he stated that once the TDP comes to power, it would complete projects like the Rajoli Banda Diversion Scheme, Vedavati, and Gundrevula.

In Kodumur constituency, Naidu reiterated his support for the Muslim community and expressed concerns over potential revisions in the existing salary structure of employees, referring to it as reverse PRC. The party's MP candidate B. Nagaraju, Mantralayam and Kodumur assembly candidates N. Raghavendra Reddy and B Dastagiri, and the party's parliamentary segment in-charge P.
