TENALI: “Do not fall in the ‘maya’ (illusion) of the Congress which is determined to purchase votes,’’ he warned. “All those who witnessed the ‘demonical rule’ in the State in the last five years will celebrate ‘Diwali’, as the demon — ‘Naraka’ Congress — will be killed on April 23,’’ he said while addressing huge gatherings in Guntur district.
Frequently using philosophical and religious phraseology in his speeches, Telugu Desam Party (TDP) president N Chandrababu Naidu cautioned voters that ‘hand’, the Congress symbol, was nothing but ‘Bhasmasura hastam’. He branded Chief Minister Y S Rajasekhara Reddy as ‘Narahantakudu’.
Addressing election meetings in Repalle, Vemuru, Tenali and other towns in the district, Naidu asserted that the TDP would surely regain power in the State. “The Grand Alliance will win 110 seats in the first phase and it will definitely be ahead of the Congress in the second phase too,’’ Naidu averred and declared ‘Raajyadhikaram mande’ (political power is ours).
As the TDP pinned its hopes on Guntur district to win 17 out of the 19 Assembly seats in the district, the mood and response of the crowd enthused Naidu. “Going by the response from you, I wish to stay in Andhra Paris.
But, I am moving forward to address meetings in other towns,’’ Naidu said in Tenali.
To promote his Cash Transfer Scheme, Naidu showed an ATM card to voters.
“You can withdraw money in any town using this card,’’ he assured them.
“The Congress is prepared to pay Rs 2,000 per vote. Do not take the cash. If the TDP is voted to power, I will give Rs 2,000 monthly. You will get Rs 1.2 lakh after five years,’’ the TDP said.
Shedding light on the CTS, Naidu said unlike leaders of the Congress, the poor would not transfer the money to Swiss banks. All the money they would get from the government would be spent in the local markets to purchase rice, edible oil and millets. The money deposited in the bank accounts of women would help rejuvenate market economy in the time of recession, Naidu said while defending his scheme. He also promised to give more than Rs 2,000 for families who gave up the habit of consuming liquor. “Do not consume liquor. Use the money you will get under the CTS for eating nutritious food,’’ Naidu counselled. On the colour TV scheme, he said, “You can watch the movies of NTR Jr and Balakrishna on the CTvs. You can also watch health, agriculture and other educative programmes and improve your standard of living,’’ Naidu explained.
In Repalle, Naidu objected to the Congress changing names for projects conceived by the TDP. “The TDP will change all the names of the projects which have the tag of Rajiv or Indira,’’ Naidu said.
In his speeches, Naidu mainly focused on Congress-bashing and made light of the very presence of the Praja Rajyam Party (PRP). PRP’s driver (Chiranjeevi) did not know how to run the train (party), Naidu ridiculed.
Though he was two hours behind schedule, the crowd waited patiently for him at several towns.
