Union Minister of Information and Broadcasting, Venkaiah Naidu has given shock to Andhra Pradesh Chief Minister N. Chandrababu Naidu.
Venkaiah Naidu has made the remarks that Hyderabad could witness so much development in the last two decades only because of the efforts made by Chandrababu Naidu, Y.S. Rajasekhar Reddy and others. However, Telugu Desam Party Chief Naidu always claims that he was the one who developed Hyderabad as a global city.
But Naidu’s own friend and union minister M Venkaiah Naidu gave him a shocker by mentioning the name of former Congress chief minister late Y S Rajasekhar Reddy as one of the architects of modern Hyderabad. Participating in a meeting at Vijayawada, Venkaiah said it was not so easy to develop a capital city on the lines of international cities. He found fault with some political parties to con the people saying that Amaravathi would become another Hyderabad overnight.
However, nobody can deny the contribution made by YSR for Hyderabad. It was because of his efforts that the city could get prestigious projects like Outer Ring Road, Rajiv Gandhi International Airport, BITS, IIT and P V Narasimha Rao Express Way. Whatever so, we will wait for the response of TDP chief Mr. Naidu, who is being claimed the copyrights on development of Hyderabad.
