Telugu Desam Party (TDP) national president and former Chief Minister N. Chandrababu Naidu will visit various irrigation projects and highlight the “failures” of the YSR Congress government in completing the projects, during his tour of north Andhra from August 8 to 10.
Addressing a media conference in this connection on August 4, senior leader of the TDP and MLA Ganta Srinivasa Rao said that the Mahashakti Chaitanya Radhayatra, to create awareness among women, will begin on August 4 and continue for 40 days.
