AMARAVATI: Asserting that a “double-engine” government is essential for the development of Andhra Pradesh, Chief Minister N Chandrababu Naidu on Saturday lauded Prime Minister Narendra Modi, stating that the country could become the world’s number one or two economy by 2047 under his leadership.
Addressing a meeting at Mydukur in Kadapa district, Naidu said that the 21 Lok Sabha seats won by the NDA in the state, out of a total of 25, have become like a “Sanjeevani” (a life-infusing elixir). He added that Andhra Pradesh, which is “financially on a ventilator,” is surviving on the oxygen being supplied by the central government.
He further stated that, though the Telugu Desam Party, with one crore members, is a regional outfit, it has always worked with a national outlook. PTI
