Hyderabad: Andhra Pradesh chief minister and TDP supremo N Chandrababu Naidu has condemned the attacks by YSRCP cadres, while expressing concerns over the physical assault on AP Assembly Speaker Kodela Sivaprasada Rao and killing another leader. CBN has termed these activities as the barbaric attitude of the YSRCP.
“YS Jaganmohan Reddy has deployed rowdy gangs across the state to create panic among public. YSRCP goons killed a TDP leader by axing him to death. In an another incident, YSRCP cadres manhandled the State Assembly Speaker Kodela at a polling station. I call upon all parties, who practice democratic principles to condemn such barbaric acts of YSRCP, which resorted to attack at several places including Allagadda, Chirala, Raptadu, Atmakuru, Punganuru, etc. I ask people to be cautious about political parties engaged in undemocratic values,” said Chandrababu Naidu.
Naidu said that 50 per cent polling was recorded by 3pm as voters in large numbers started going to polling booths from morning 6:30 onwards.
“If EVMs were functional properly, the voting percentage would have been much better. I ask those voters, who returned without voting owing to technical glitches of EVMs, to return back to cast your votes. Make it sure that all the voters should reach polling booths before 6pm so that they can exercise their votes. I request all the voters to dedicate this one day for protecting democracy. I’ll work for your welfare for next five years. Don’t let our state slip into hands of goons. Your vote will decide your future and next generations as well,” maintained Naidu.
