DC Edit | Andhra hopes high as Naidu starts record 4th term as CM

Deccan Chronicle  

After one of the biggest electoral triumphs of his life, Nara Chandrababu Naidu, chief of the Telugu Desam Party, is set to begin a record fourth term as chief minister of Andhra Pradesh. After taking oath on Wednesday in the presence of political and cultural bigwigs, including his NDA partners, Prime Minister Narendra Modi, home minister Amit Shah, Union ministers Nitin Gadkari and J.P. Nadda, and former vice-president of India, M. Venkaiah Naidu, besides a galaxy of film stars including Tamil superstar Rajinikanth, and Telugu megastar K. Chiranjeevi, whose younger brother and Tollywood power star K. Pawan Kalyan is the boss of the Jana Sena Party, a crucial NDA ally, and a minister in the new Andhra Pradesh Cabinet, chief minister Chandrababu Naidu is all set to hit the ground running. Mr Chandrababu Naidu, whose business friendly policies, proactive push to build Hyderabad into a global destination for software and pharma investments and rapid push for infrastructure-building during his first stint of nine years over two terms as CM of united AP between 1995 and 2004, was the first state CM and regional party leader to create a space in the post-liberalisation phase of Indian democracy to pursue economic reforms and investments-to-jobs creation as good politics. Promising a more balanced tenure when he came to power as an NDA partner, backed by the electoral charisma of the then prime ministerial candidate, Narendra Modi, and Jana Sena chief Pawan Kalyan, Mr Naidu wished to put all his eggs in the basket of a new, greenfield capital of Amaravati, and yet again, lost power badly in 2019 to YSRC chief Y.S.
