Women empowerment would be possible only under a Telugu Desam Party (TDP) government, party chief N. Chandrababu Naidu said while interacting with women cadre at the party office here on Monday.
Mr. Naidu expressed concern that several welfare schemes implemented by the TDP regime were subsequently withdrawn after Y.S. Jagan Mohan Reddy became the Chief Minister.
“Mr. Jagan resorted to supplying spurious liquor in order to make money, which led to many women in the State becoming widows. Andhra Pradesh has become a hub for ganja and drugs, ruining the lives of our youth,” Mr. Naidu regretted.
