‘P4 focused on long term benefits, not immediate politics': Foundation Vice Chairman
'It is a mission for the people, by the people, and to the people - cutting across political lines, communities, regions, or economic status. The program is built on participation, not politics,' Rao said in a release issued on Monday. He stated that the P4 (Public-Private-People Partnership) initiative aims to enhance people's participation for the progress and prosperity of Andhra Pradesh.
CM Naidu is fully aware that P4 may not bring immediate political dividends, yet he has chosen to lead this initiative with full commitment because the well-being of the people comes first, not politics.
The program demands significant effort, coordination, and energy, but its focus remains clear: to create a platform where citizens, businesses, NRIs come together in service of society.

BJP slams house arrest of Telangana party chief, terms it attack on democratic rights
1 2 3 4 Hyderabad: The Telangana BJP has criticised the house arrest of its state president, N Ramchander Rao, calling it an unjustified move that prevented him from joining the party's 'hoist the national tricolour' campaign. The initiative, planned for Tuesday morning, aimed at encouraging citizens to display the national flag at their homes as a mark of respect to freedom fighters. Rao was scheduled to participate in a series of events in the Secunderabad and Goshamahal constituencies. However, police officers arrived at his Tarnaka residence and placed him under house arrest, reportedly to stop him from attending a BJP women's wing programme at Peddamma temple in Jubilee Hills. The BJP asserted that the campaign was entirely apolitical, focused solely on honouring the national flag and the sacrifices of freedom fighters, and accused the Congress govt of political overreach. The party warned that such "undemocratic actions" would trigger state-wide protests if repeated.

Party spokesperson NV Subhash accused the govt of using unlawful arrests to silence dissent. "Just as the people of Telangana turned their backs on the BRS, the Revanth Reddy govt may face the same fate," he cautioned. BJP vice president NVSS Prabhakar claimed that the Congress govt was continuing the 'vote-bank politics' of the previous BRS regime by curbing the majority community's access to temples and religious activities.
