"Since decades they have been playing the same game. For votes, they come up with a 10-yr plan to waive off farm loans. They lie and in reality loan of only 25-30 out of 100 farmers are waived off. There too, farmers get only a few hundred rupees and rest goes into pockets of middlemen," says PM.

"The good work of the NDA govt has made some people very unhappy and their unhappiness has turned into desperation and abuse for Modi.

Addressing a public rally in Guntur, PM Modi said, “From fighting the Dushta Congress under the formidable NTR Garu to becoming a Dost of Congress, the TDP has come a long way. Andhra Pradesh has seen the TDP’s true colours. My ‘senior’ in politics, Shri Chandrababu Naidu obviously has lots to hide. Else why won’t he give an account of what his miserable Government has done for Andhra Pradesh. Centre has left no stone unturned for the state’s progress but the priorities of the TDP are different.”

PM Modi asks, “Chandrababu Naidu promised to realize the dreams and also to follow the footsteps of NTR. But today is he giving respect to NTR? The leader of TDP who should have worked for Congress Free India is now supporting the Congress Party.” Referring to the protest by the TDP workers against Modi’s visit, he said, “I am happy TDP has told me to 'go back' to Delhi! I am glad TDP people are holding slogans - ‘go back Modi.’ Meaning I will go back and take authority again in Delhi. Meaning, I will come back to power again and be back in Delhi.”

PM while launching a scathing attack on Andhra Pradesh CM, said “Chandrababu Naidu has reserved every foul word available in dictionary for Modi. Is this the culture of the state?”

The Centre is working on every single point of the Andhra Pradesh Re-Organisation Act-2014 created during the bifurcation of the state. It is because of this that 10 out of 11 higher education institutions including IIT Tirupati, Anantapur Central University, IIM Visakhapatnam, AIIMS in Mangalagiri, have been started in the state.

“Our govt gave more funds to Andhra Pradesh under special package more than what special status would have given it. The special package was hailed by Naidu in the house, but he later took a U-turn on it,” said PM Modi. “I would like to put a full stop on series of lies. In past 55 months Central govt has released adequate funds for the development of Andhra. However, the state govt never utilised the funds allocated in an efficient manner,” he added

“Projects worth Rs 3 lakh crores including logic and manufacturing hubs and central institutes proposed for Andhra Pradesh. A central university in Ananthapur, IIM in visakhapatnam and AIIMS in Mangakagiri have also been planned for the state by the Centre government,” said PM Modi.

Hitting out at N Chandrababu Naidu, Modi said he was "scared of losing the election." He also said that he wanted to bring his son in politics. "Your watchman has made him uneasy," said PM Modi, pointing to himself.

"But now, instead of continuing NTR's promise of a Congress-mukt Andhra Pradesh, he has become friends with them", says PM Modi in Guntur.

"It was due to the arrogance of the Naamdaar family in Delhi that NT Rama Rao swore to rid Andhra Pradesh of Congress rule," said PM Modi.

Assam's North Eastern Gas Grid was launched yesterday. Many cities of the country are being connected through city gas distribution system.

"He keeps reminding me he is my senior. But he is senior in backstabbing his father-in-law. He is senior in changing parties and making alliances. What has happened to Chandrababu Naidu? Why does he keep pointing out that he is senior?" PM Modi said.

"N Chandrababu Naidu said he would be the sunrise chief minister. But he seems interested in raising profile of his son. He told me he would turn around the infrastructure of Andhra Pradesh. But he himself took a u-turn," says PM Modi.

Only 55% people had gas connection before 2014 but now the number has gone up to 90%, says PM Modi.

The central government has also selected Amravati under HRIDAY scheme, so that the heritage sites here can be conserved and developed.
