Politburo meeting presided over by Chandrababu Naidu
The Telugu Desam Party (TDP) politburo has resolved to conduct Mahanadu, the party’s annual conclave, as a virtual meeting similar to last year. The two-day conclave has been scheduled to be held on May 27 and 28.
The politburo, in its meeting chaired by TDP national president and former Chief Minister N. Chandrababu Naidu, has decided to hold the conclave virtually considering the prevailing COVID situation.
Party leaders strongly condemned the ‘illegal arrest’ of party leader and former Banaganapalli legislator B.C. Janardhan Reddy and other leaders in Kurnool district.
The politburo took strong objection to the manner in which the State government filed an atrocities case against Mr. Janardhan Reddy. “The cases were lodged out of sheer political vendetta. The SC/ST Atrocities Act is being brazenly misused by the Jagan Mohan Reddy regime with no respect for the law of the land,” the politburo members said.
