Chief Minister Chandrababu Naidu’s latest media presentation was not a report on governance, it was a meticulously choreographed parade of distortions, half-truths, and outright lies. Rather than presenting data or evidence, Naidu chose once again to drown reality under a flood of falsehoods, blaming the previous government for every failure while hiding his own track record of debt, mafia raj, privatisation, law-and-order collapse, and betrayal of public trust.
True brand of chandrababu naidu
Chandrababu talks about “AP’s brand,” but the real brand he has built over decades is very different:
- Backstabbing his own mentor to seize power
- Mocking agriculture as a burden while destroying livelihoods
- Handing education, health, and welfare systems to private interests
- Selling government assets for throwaway prices
- Running liquor, sand, silica, and mining mafias
- Tailor-made tenders awarding inflated contracts to cronies
- Borrowing recklessly and diverting public money
- Breaking election promises and deceiving citizens
- Creating a police state through Red Book rule and political arrests
This is the brand AP remembers, and continues to suffer under.
Regime of mafias, privatisation & repression
- Spurious liquor turned into a cottage industry
- Lakhs of illegal belt shops across AP
- Government medical colleges & Aarogyasri pushed towards privatisation
- Fee reimbursement scrapped; students abandoned
- Temple demolitions, violations, and collapse of religious administration
- Students jailed for criticism
- Even IPS officers jailed under political vendetta
This is the reality behind Naidu’s rhetoric.
Lie vs Truth
● Lie: YSRCP caused Rs. 10 lakh crore debt & mortgaged state assets
● Truth: official assembly records expose naidu’s claim
State debt comparison (as per finance minister p. keshav’s written reply, 23 sept 2025)
| Category | Amount (Rs. Crore) |
| Debt when Chandrababu left office in 2019 | 3,06,952.26 |
| Total borrowing during YSRCP’s 5-year tenure | 3,70,897 |
| TDP’s fake claims | 10–14 lakh crore |
Chandrababu publicly repeated fabricated numbers, while official documents prove him wrong.
● Lie: YSRCP collapsed the GSDP; AP lost rs. 7 lakh crore
● Truth: Naidu’s own targets contradict his claims
The coalition government claims enormous GSDP targets (12.02% last year, 17.1% this year), requiring 12–15% CAGR in revenue growth.
Actual Performance vs Required Performance
| Metric | Required for Targets | Actual Recorded |
| Revenue Growth (CAGR) | 12–15% | 2.75% |
| Capital Expenditure Growth | Positive, strong | –16% (Negative) |
| Q1 Own Revenue Growth | Strong double-digit | 3.47% |
Under YSRCP (2019–24), GSDP grew at 10.23% CAGR and state tax revenue at 9.87% CAGR, far better than the coalition’s current collapse.
● Lie: YSRCP left behind 85 lakh tonnes of garbage
● Truth: Tdp introduced garbage tax; YSRCP cleaned the system
TDP itself imposed garbage-related taxation as early as 2002 and implemented user charges in urban bodies during 2014–19.
What YSRCP Implemented:
- CLAP – Clean Andhra Pradesh Mission
- 4,000+ new garbage collection vehicles
- 1.2 crore dustbins distributed to 43 lakh households
- Two waste-to-energy plants operationalised
- NGT appreciated AP’s sanitation model
TDP politicised even sanitation colours and bins, an all-time low.
● Lie: Power sector was Destroyed; Ysrcp paid Rs. 9,000 cr For unused power
● Truth: Naidu imposed Rs. 19,000 cr power burden in 18 months
APERC slammed the TDP government for illegal power charges and ordered a refund of Rs. 923.55 crore collected from consumers. Yet, Naidu falsely claims he “did not increase power tariffs.”
● Lie: “Super Six” Promises have been delivered
● Truth: Almost every promise is unfulfilled
| Promise | What Was Promised | What Was Given |
| Unemployment Allowance | Rs. 3,000/month (Rs. 72,000 in 2 yrs) | Not given |
| Aadabidda Nidhi | Rs. 1,500/month (Rs. 36,000 in 2 yrs) | Not given |
| Pension at 50 | Rs. 4,000/month (Rs. 96,000 in 2 yrs) | Not given |
| Annadata Sukhibhava | Rs. 40,000 in 2 yrs | Rs. 10,000 total |
| Amma Odi | Full coverage | 30 lakh students removed |
| LPG Cylinders | 6 cylinders in 2 yrs | Only 3 given |
| Free Travel for Women | All buses | Limited buses only |
This is a blueprint of betrayal.
● Lie: Jagan’s Vehicle Caused Singayya’s Death
● Truth: A Political Setup & Security Failure
- Z+ protectee YS Jagan was denied proper security
- Fake videos circulated by TDP ecosystem
- SP himself gave contradictory statements
- TDP attempted to weaponise a tragic death for propaganda
- Lie: “YSRCP supports Temple Theft; Rs. 14 cr donation Is unbelievable”
- Truth: TDP has a history of misusing Tirumala for politics
- Supreme Court questioned Chandrababu for false allegations on laddu ghee adulteration
- Parakamani accused publicly released a remorse video
- Donated 90% of his assets to TTD
- TDP threatened and pressured him — documented
- TDP’s renewed focus on this case is a political diversion
● Lie: “Indigo Crisis Is A Central Issue, Tdp Is Not Responsible”
● Truth: Tdp Wants Credit For Success & Zero Blame For Failure
- Two TDP ministers hold key portfolios in the Union Government
- The Indigo meltdown exposed administrative incompetence
- Minister Ram Mohan Naidu faced national criticism
- TDP shifted blame to Centre while taking credit for unrelated positives
Hypocrisy at its peak.
● Lie: “Farmers Must Change Crops; Rice Causes Diabetes; Pesticides reduce Market Value”
● Truth: A Chief Minister Who Fails Farmers Is Now Blaming Them
- Rice is India’s staple; no PM has ever advised against paddy cultivation
- Crop patterns depend on agro-climatic zones
- Even pesticides come from government research institutions
- TDP offered no MSP for BPT rice
Price comparison:
| Government | BPT Paddy Price (per quintal) |
| TDP | Rs. 1300 |
| YSRCP | Rs. 1800–Rs. 2200 |
Chandrababu failed to ensure market support yet lectures farmers on what to grow and what to eat.
CONCLUSION
Chandrababu Naidu’s governance narrative is built not on facts, performance, or accountability, but on fabrication, diversion, fear politics, and relentless propaganda. His media briefing was nothing more than a continuation of that pattern. The truth is clear: AP is grappling with a government that hides failures behind lies and weaponises institutions to silence critics. The people deserve better than a Chief Minister who rewrites facts instead of addressing reality.
