CBN sharply reacts to KE allegations

Andhra Pradesh Deputy CM KE Krishna Murthy has criticized Chief Minister Chandrababu Naidu for not focusing his attention on Kurnool district for its development. He alleges that the Chief Minister is fond of East and West Godavari districts, because TDP has won many seats from both those districts whereas it could bag only three seats from Kurnool.

He also indirectly criticized the Chief Minister for appointing Chakrapani Reddy as district president of the party, who is not familiar about district.

Chandrababu Naidu, who generally avoids replying through media, reacts very sharply to his comments. He said “I am developing Kurnool district than anyone else did in the past. Several educational institutions and industries are coming to Kurnool district in the near future. Being, Chief Minister of the state I treat all districts equally and putting efforts for development of entire state and not on any one district or one region. We have to respect the people, who gave us a chance to come into power. But, it doesn’t mean that the government is ignoring other districts.”

Responding about appointing Chakrapani Reddy, “TDP will always honor the party workers and leaders, who worked hard for the party and stood by it during its difficult times,” said CM Chandrababu Naidu.
