Machilipatnam : TDP Krishna district president and former MP Konakalla Narayana Rao came down heavily on the YSRCP government for neglecting the State and its development. He lamented that people are facing many problems for the past four years of the autocratic regime.

The TDP leader participated in the concluding programme of ‘Idemi Kharma Mana Rashtraniki’ at Pedana on Friday along with Pedana constituency in-charge Kagitha Krishna Prasad. Addressing the gathering, Narayana Rao informed that several people have told their hardships and problems during this programme. “We met over one lakh people during the programme in the respective constituencies.
