Naidu for 3 days in the districts every week

Special Correspondent.

HYDERABAD: After conclusion of his ‘Mee kosam’, a few weeks from now, TDP president N. Chandrababu Naidu plans to divide his time equally between touring the districts and staying put at the party headquarters.

On his 93rd day of ‘Mee kosam’, he addressed almost a dozen meetings and road shows in adjoining Ranga Reddy district before entering Mahbubnagar district late on Sunday night. His hectic schedule started with a meeting of party cadres at a function hall in Tukkuguda.

Telling cadres that ‘Mee kosam’ had generated tremendous response from people and cadres alike, Mr. Naidu asked them if he should continue. A few of his partymen responded that while the programme was a success, they felt his presence at NTR Memorial Trust Bhavan here was necessary. He responded saying that henceforth, he would spend three days a week with people in the districts and at NTR Memorial Trust Bhavan.

Rahul criticised

Meanwhile, at a press conference here on Sunday, Rajya Sabha member of the TDP M.V. Mysoora Reddy ridiculed Mr. Gandhi’s ‘social audit’ programme and said the three interactive sessions he had with rural people had thrown up the same points that the TDP had been harping upon. These were the fact that there were many irregularities in NREGP.

“When people are talking of corruption flowing like a stream from the village-level and how it grew to become a river as it reached the State-level, it is a shame that Congress leaders are patting themselves on the back”, he said.
