AP Chief Minister N. Chandrababu Naidu today reiterated that he would work
as a laborer for development of the State.
Speaking at a felicitation function organized by APNGOs at Vijayawada, Naidu appreciated the role of
APNGOs during agitation for united Andhra Pradesh. He assured the employees that their problems
would be solved in a phased manner and the government would have meeting with employees’
associations once three months. “If we failed to work hardly, future generation would have to face
problems”, he added.
Naidu said his government would withdraw all cases filed against the employees during the agitation
and 80 days of agitation would be treated as leave. Naidu said Andhra Pradesh would be developed into
Swarnandhra Pradesh. “If we get cooperation from the people and employees, the State would emerge
as top State in the country within ten years”, he added.
“It was our good luck the NDA government is there at the Centre and we have appealed to
it to help us in rebuilding of new State of Andhra Pradesh. I am a man to find a solution after facing
problems”. He further stated that he would work like a laborer for the people. Recalling his fight for
united State before bifurcation, Naidu said some people took it easy when I had advocated for equal
justice. During the process of bifurcation of the State, I spent sleepless nights as bifurcation has hurt me
so much that I never faced such a situation in my life”.
Referring to protest against Polavaram project, Naidu said even after protests against Polavaram, the
NDA government is going ahead to do justice to Andhra Pradesh. “We do not have funds and the State
has Rs 15,600 crore deficit budget. We will implement welfare schemes by increasing our revenue in
coming days”, he said, adding that Hyderabad city was developed by hard work during his regime when
he was chief minister of united Andhra Pradesh. The city was developed for Telugu people, Naidu added.
