TDP national president N. Chandrababu Naidu has reiterated that the objective of the alliance with the Jana Sena Party (JSP) is to end the YSR Congress Party’s (YSRCP) “draconian rule,” and insists that only those leaders having people’s acceptance are being selected as candidates for the upcoming elections.
Addressing the first lot of the TDP candidates, whose names were announced on February 24, through a videoconference on February 25 (Sunday), Mr. Naidu cautioned them against being complacent with the assumption that the anti-incumbency factor would fetch them victory.
Mr. Naidu said that Chief Minister Y.S. Jagan Mohan Reddy would try all the tricks up his sleeve to sabotage the TDP-JSP alliance. Cadres of both the parties should be wary of such attempts to drive a wedge between the allies, he said.
