Hyderabad: Telugu Desam Party (TDP) on Monday released separate election manifestos for Telangana and Seemandhra, promising to waive off farm loans. TDP chief N Chandrababu Naidu told reporters that if voted to power in both the states, TDP would waive off all loans of the farmers to provide them relief.
“TDP will make agriculture a profitable venture. That’s the reason we are promising crop loan waiver. TDP is the only party capable of delivering good governance to the people,” he said, seeking to taking digs at TRS, Congress and YSR Congress Party. He promised a special protection force for women would be created to ensure that the police can reach within five minutes to help women in trouble.Â
TDP also promised bullet trains and higher bandwidth for Seemandhra as well as advocated giving the chief minister’s post to backward castes in Telangana. Replying to queries about seat sharing with BJP, Naidu said discussions are on and he hoped that they would conclude positively. “BJP should also think that a strong TDP means strong Telugu people who would make the nation strong,” Naidu said.Â
