Vizianagaram MP and YSR Congress Party leader Bellana Chandrasekhar said that Andhra Pradesh Chief Minister Y.S. Jagan Mohan Reddy’s welfare and developmental activities have touched the hearts of common people who were again keen to vote for him and the ruling party’s candidates in the ensuing elections.
Mr. Chandrasekhar, an advocate, was elected to Parliament in the 2019 general elections, defeating former Union Minister P. Ashok Gajapathi Raju by a margin of 48,036 votes. The YSRCP has fielded him again from Vizianagaram for the 2024 Lok Sabha elections, where he has intensified the campaign in all seven Assembly constituencies under the district, Meanwhile, the opposition Telugu Desam Party (TDP) has fielded its senior leader Kalisetti Appala Naidu there.
Mr. Chandrasekhar said that absolute unity among all the sitting MLAs and present Assembly candidates under his Lok Sabha constituency would be an added advantage for him to win the seat with a comfortable majority. “In spite of COVID-19 and other issues, I could take up many developmental activities such as nine under passage bridges, two Road Over Bridges (ROBs) and others with MP Local Area Development Funds. Hundreds of villages were provided solar lighting facilities during the five year-tenure,” he said while addressing the people in Nellimarla during an election campaign.
