Chandrababu Naidu & Pawan Kalyan vow to end Jagan Mohan Reddy's rule in Andhra Pradesh

Hyderabad: TDP supremo N Chandrababu Naidu and Jana Sena chief Pawan Kalyan vowed to remove Chief Minister and YSRCP chief, Y S Jagan Mohan Reddy from power to bring "change" in Andhra Pradesh.

In a first joint appearance, after TDP and Jana Sena announced electoral alliance in September, both Naidu and Pawan on Wednesday exuded confidence in dislodging the YSRCP government in 2024 polls.

Comparing 2024 poll battle with the epic war of Kurukshetra, Naidu said that TDP and Jana Sena’s alliance is in the "interest of the future" of Andhra Pradesh "which only witnessed destruction and anarchy" under Y S Jagan’s rule in the last five years.

In a public meeting that was held to mark the culmination of Yuvagalam padayatra by TDP scion Nara Lokesh, the TDP chief said that the countdown has begun for the "downfall" of Jagan’s government.

“If YSRCP remains in power, there will be continuous exploitation of natural resources of Andhra Pradesh. The Jagan Reddy-led party is blatantly curtailing freedom of expression and threatening their own leaders with possible outcomes”, said Pawan Kalyan.

Emphasizing on crime against women in the state, he said, “If YSRCP is re-elected in 2024, the crime rate may escalate to the point where people won't feel secure even in their homes.”

Extending solidarity to Naidu, Pawan said he is ready to support him during the "challenging times". He said, "Naidu's extensive experience of governance and developmental efforts during his regime are noteworthy. In 2024, the TDP-Jana Sena government will be established to bring much-needed change to Andhra Pradesh.”

"Jagan is scared of the Naidu and Pawan Kalyan," Nara Lokesh said adding that Naidu was sent to jail after "arresting him illegally".
