Return to arrogance and untrusting behaviour – Chandra Babu Naidu



Mr. Naidu did the right thing this time to join NDA for General Election 2014 or did he really? Naidu was forced to do get some support few weeks back as Jagan criminal gangs are threatening to sweep the seats in Costal Andra and Rayalaseema areas. With fear of losing looming large Naidu thought he will join with BJP.
This plan of joining with BJP this time around is an old one and his meeting with Naradra Modi before the division of Andra Pradesh State said to be the reason for forced division of the state by Sonia gang. But after division he sent mixed signals to BJP and in turn BJP have serious hints that it may negotiate with Jagan. This created panic in Naidu camp and a deal with huge confusion (created mainly by games played by Naidu) was finally done. Even after the deal Naidu insisting that BJP should put up “strong candidates” in the seats allotted to them. How Naidu can make such demands is not known. Now we see TDP also contesting the same seats allotted to BJP which is clearly a bitrail. This is not on. How you can allot seats to your alliance partner and then put up your party candidates in the same seats?
Another basic problem is Naidu is unwilling to accept that Modi is superior to him. For all his “High Tech CEO” image Naidu is nothing in comparison with Modi whose record in governance is much better.  Naidu could not stop Congress from coming back strongly to kick him out of power. His desperation to come back to power by joining with TRS ensured he lose the elections in 2009 also and Congress taking advantage of his two eyes theory divided AP. With such embarrassing record he still has guts to claim that he is the original CEO CM and Modi copied him.  His delusions, fears, manipulation ideas still playing active party. His failure to take everyone along with him – No seat to Hari Krishna, No scope for Jr NTR, No extension of friendly hand to Purandhareswari. In short nothing changed in Naidu. By marrying Balakrishna daughter with Lokesh he has ensured Balakrishna is with him. He thinks he do not need Hari Krishna and Jr NTR is a competition to his son Lokesh.  
Now it seems that he wants Modi should hold join meeting with him. BJP do not see any reason for it. Naidu is not a long standing ally like Akalies or Siva Sena. Further everyone in BJP knows the conduct of Naidu. They will not be so accommodating of Naidu this time around. The help given to Naidu during Atalji government during NDA rule is quickly forgotten by him but BJP clearly not forgotten the statement of Naidy that joining/supporting NDA was his biggest mistake. He also threatenged to withdraw support to BJP on 2002 riots and demanded that Modi be removed from the CM position. BJP simply ignored that demand. Now the world has come full circle.

With all this background, it seems that Naidu now confident that he will win in AP and does not need BJP support now. He already put up candidates in at least 3 MLA seats which were allotted to BJP and his “leaders” are making comments openly that BJP candidates are “weak” etc. Such insulting conduct by Telugu Desam people will not be taken lightly by BJP which is now confident under Modi leadership.

Yet Naidu pressing ahead with his games. We should now ask ourselves – Can he be trusted now?
