There will be no hike in power tariffs if TDP-JSP combine wins in Andhra Pradesh, says Chandrababu Naidu

There will be no increase in power tariffs in Andhra Pradesh if the TDP-JSP combine wins in the ensuing general elections, asserts former Chief Minister and TDP national president N. Chandrababu Naidu.

Addressing a public meeting as a part of the ‘Raa Kadali Raa’ campaign at Kamalapuram in Kadapa district on January 19, Mr. Naidu asked the people to recall the “false promises” made by Y.S. Jagan Mohan Reddy (then Opposition leader) in the run-up to the elections and how the YSRCP government resorted to a series of hikes in the power and RTC bus charges in the last five years.

Terming Mr. Jagan Mohan Reddy a “traitor of Rayalaseema,” Mr. Naidu said the TDP was committed to comprehensive development of the region by giving a boost to the water projects, and horticulture and agriculture sectors.
