Cong, TRS copied loan waiver scheme: Naidu

Nizamabad: TDP supremo N Chandrababu Naidu said that the Congress and the TRS ‘copied’ the loan waiver scheme which his party had promised three years ago. He addressed the public in Ranga Reddy, Medak, Nizamabad and Karimnagar districts on Sunday. At Bodhan, Naidu said the TDP government had provided nine-hour power to the farmers. The prices of essential commodities skyrocketed in the Congress regime, he said and added that people were looking towards Modi for a change. He said that he and Modi were ‘development team’, Congress ‘corrupt’ team and TRS ‘collection’ team. The NDA would come to power at the Centre and the TDP in the State, he said.

Naidu said KCR was not in a position to criticise Modi. The TRS chief would not be able to provide electricity properly even for the next 30 years, he ridiculed. Surplus budget and surplus electricity were achieved during the TDP rule, he claimed. Addressing a meeting at Jagtial in Karimnagar district, he said Jagtial would be converted into a district if the TDP was voted to power.
