TDP high command rewards loyal leaders with coveted posts
Vizianagaram District Cooperative Central Bank's new chairman Kimidi Nagarjuna and Vizianagaram District Marketing Committee's new chairman Gompa Krishna took charge officially in oath taking ceremonies organised separately in Vizianagaram on Sunday (June 8, 2025). They vowed to strengthen their organisations under the guidance of Chief Minister N. Chandrababu Naidu and the Ministers concerned. TDP high command rewarded Mr. Nagarjuna with the coveted post as he could not get the party ticket for the Cheepurupalli Assembly seat although he was in-charge of the constituency and president of TDP-Vizianagaram Parliamentary wing prior to Assembly elections held in the Year-2024. TDP high command offered Cheepurupalli seat to the former Minister Kimidi Kala Venkata Rao who defeated the then Minister for Education Botcha Satyanarayana, who represented the seat thrice since 2004. Mr. Gompa Krishna, who is an NRI, could not be given the party ticket for Assembly seat, as the party selected former MLA Kolla Lalitakumari, who emerged victorious after defeating sitting MLA Kadubandi Srinivasa Rao in the 2024 general election. Mr. Krishna, who is also TDP State Secretary, was selected for the DCMS chairperson post. Minister for MSME Kondapalli Srinivas, MLAs Kondru Muralimohan, Aditi Vijayalakshmi and others congratulated both leaders and hoped their vision would put DCCB and DCMS on the path of development.

Police excesses reflected organised crime: YSRCP coordinator Sajjala
VIJAYAWADA: YSRCP State coordinator Sajjala Ramakrishna Reddy lashed out at the TDP-led NDA government, alleging that a section of police officers was functioning like a private army of Chief Minister N Chandrababu Naidu and HRD Minister Nara Lokesh. An organised crime gang was created within the police system, causing grave harm to the State's law and order machinery, he said. Speaking to mediapersons on Saturday, after visiting Lakshminarayana, a YSRCP activist, who is undergoing treatment at a private hospital in Guntur after attempting suicide, Sajjala demanded strict action against the DSP, who harassed him. He also demanded that a judicial inquiry by a sitting judge be conducted into the incident. He said complaints against the State-sponsored violence would be submitted to the President of India, and the National Human Rights Commission (NHRC). He said Andhra Pradesh was now witnessing a far worse situation that prevailed once in Uttar Pradesh, with unchecked police actions pushing it towards institutional collapse. Sajjala detailed how Lakshminarayana, a businessman and party activist, was summoned by the DSP on the pretext of a panchayat, verbally abused in the name of caste, and humiliated for his political affiliation. The emotional distress led him to attempt suicide, and he is now battling for life, Sajjala said.

Approval from TDP HQ necessary to admit leaders, Andhra CM Naidu says
VIJAYAWADA: As the induction of leaders from other parties into the coalition is creating minor rifts between the TDP-JSP-BJP cadres at times, TDP supremo N Chandrababu Naidu has directed the leaders to inform the party central office before doing that. In a release issued on Saturday, TDP State president Palla Srinivasa Rao said as per the directions of the party supremo it is mandatory to inform the party central office before inviting leaders from other parties into the TDP fold. Mentioning that the central office will critically analyse the leaders willing to join the TDP, Palla said Naidu gave clear instructions that induction of leaders from other parties should take place only with the approval of the central leadership. The TDP State chief asked the leaders serving in different positions in the party to make a note of the directions issued by the TDP supremo. In fact, admitting former YSRCP leader and Visakha Dairy Chairman Adari Anand Kumar into the BJP sparked a row with the TDP taking serious exception to it.
