Tempers raised between Chandrababu Naidu and BJP MLC Madhav after the latter interrupted CBN’s speech. Addressing the Legislative Council, CBN spoke about anti-social elements obstructing the Polavaram project progress. Suddenly, MLC Madhav interrupted the speech. Annoyed at Madhav’s behaviour, CBN asked him to continue.
‘The Centre is committed towards the development of Andhra Pradesh. It never asked the state government to bear the costs of land pooling and rehabilitation.
At the same time, it is unfair for TDP leaders to think that the Centre wouldn’t play a supporting role because they came out of NDA. The State Government should focus on Polavaram Rehabilitation Program, and carry out the corresponding works,’ said Madhav.
Reacting on this, Chandrababu Naidu, in a fierce tone lashed out at Madhav. ‘Why is the PM meeting financial criminals? Those people are literally hiding from the Press, and spending time sitting in the PMO.
They are even stating that they will continue to meet the PM until they get me behind the bars. Let them do whatever we want. One shouldn’t forget that a person who had a history of corruption charges in the past, has been sent to jail because he went to meet former CBI director. This is absolutely uncalled for’, said Chandrababu.
