Lokesh took part in campaign in Duggirala mandal of Mangalagiri Assembly constituency in Guntur district on Sunday. Speaking on this occasion, he pointed out that Guntur MP Galla Jayadev pulled up Prime Minister Narendra Modi in Lok Sabha for denying SCS to the State.

He said that despite non-cooperation from the Centre, Chief Minister N Chandrababu Naidu was constructing the State capital and successfully implemented welfare schemes for the benefit of the poor.
He assured that if elected, he will develop Mangalagiri constituency as the best Assembly constituency in the State and he would be within the reach of people to solve their problems.
Lokesh visited Godavarru, Veerlapalem, Pedapalem and Chinapalem and interacted with women, elders and farmers and inquired about their problems. He pointed out that welfare schemes introduced by Chandrababu Naidu were benefiting all the sections of the people.
