Telugu Desam Party (TDP) president N. Chandrababu Naidu was sworn in as the Chief Minister of Andhra Pradesh for a record fourth term. Following his oath-taking, Naidu took to LinkedIn to share his excitement with his followers, stating, "Delighted to share that I'm resuming my duties as the people's Chief Minister of Andhra Pradesh." The TDP chief's LinkedIn post garnered over 12,000 reactions.
This victory is a significant comeback for Naidu, who suffered a crushing defeat in the 2019 state polls. The TDP-led NDA alliance secured a landslide victory, winning 164 out of 175 seats in the Assembly, with TDP alone bagging 135 seats. The party is also the biggest ally of the BJP in the NDA government.
Chandrababu Naidu's statement on LinkedIn reads:
"Delighted to share that I'm resuming my duties as the people's Chief Minister of Andhra Pradesh.
As you all are aware, the people of our state have given Team TDP-JSP-BJP an overwhelming mandate to serve them with 164 seats in the Assembly. This was a result of all the hard work put in by our grassroots karyakartas, office bearers and leaders, who toiled day and night to take our team's vision for the future to the people. Their devotion paved the way for a larger Team Andhra Pradesh to emerge, with people across the state unitedly pitching in as our fourth alliance partner with their votes. Ours will be a people's government. We shall strive to fulfill their expectations and deliver a people-centric governance to the best of our abilities."
