Estimates for the entire undivided state give the TDP 29 % of the votes and the YSR Congress 21 %

TDP manifesto promises accelerated development in Andhra Pradesh


The “hi-tech” politician, as TDP president N. Chandrababu Naidu was known during his nine-year tenure, is back with his vision for development of the successor State of Andhra Pradesh.

TDP president N. Chandrababu Naidu unveiled an ambitious plan for the development of the new State in his party’s manifesto with an assurance that he would personally market the resources to attract investments. The manifesto focuses on development of growth corridors, specialising in different areas, for achieving 10 to 15 % growth on an average over the next decade.

The industrial corridor between Visakhapatnam and Chennai will be centred on development of industrial clusters around ports – from Kalingapatnam to Durgarajapatnam.

In addition to the existing highway, a high speed transport corridor would be developed for faster connection between these industrial clusters. 

The manifesto proposes revival of the Buckingham Canal, the water transport way running along the coast, connecting all the major ports for shipment of products developed in the clusters to the nearest port.

The TDP proposes to leverage the special status accorded to Srikakulam-Vizianagaram-Visakhapatnam and four districts of Rayalaseema for securing funds liberally from the Centre to take up developmental works.

 Simultaneously, the existing airports at Visakhapatnam, Tirupati and Vijayawada would be upgraded to international airport status while smaller airstrips would be set up in each of the 13 districts in the new State.

The focus will be on agriculture, aquaculture and export processing zones in the coastal districts while Guntur and Prakasam would be developed as textile hubs. 

Cement and steel industry would take the centre-stage in Kadapa, Kurnool and Anantapur

Chittoor and Anantapur would be developed as manufacturing hubs specialising in electronics and pharmacy sectors.

The BJP entered into an electoral alliance with the Telugu Desam Party on Sunday April 06,2014 for the Lok Sabha and the Andhra Pradesh assembly elections. 



The announcement came on Sunday afternoon - a day before the first phase of the 2014 general elections.

 The two parties, which held parleys till late on Saturday, agreed on a seat-sharing formula whereby the BJP will get 47 of the 119 assembly seats and eight of 17 Lok Sabha constituencies in Telangana and 15 of 175 assembly and five of 25 Lok Sabha seats in Seemandhra. 


The list of the constituencies to be contested by the parties would be declared in a couple of days

BJP leader Prakash Javadekar, who was involved in the seat-sharing parleys, said the announcement of the alliance was historic as it has enthused not only Telangana and Andhra Pradesh but the whole country too.
"The TDP will be a part of the NDA now...Chandrababu Naidu will be the co-architect with Narendra Modi in creating a corruption and Congress-free India," Akali Dal's Naresh Gujral, who mediated between the BJP and TDP, said.

Voting for the assembly and parliamentary segments in Telangana are scheduled for April 30. Seemandhra will go to polls on May 07,2014



The BJP was eyeing the tie-up since last year as it was in August, 2013 that Narendra Modi had reached out to the TDP, reminding the party of the agenda of its founder N.T. Rama Rao - throwing the Congress out of power.
"This is a winning alliance which will ensure that the new government secures more than 300 seats at the Centre. 
It is aimed at rooting out the Congress- headed government," TDP leader N Chandrababu Naidu said, while announcing the tie-up in Hyderabad.
"Narendra Modi stands for development… Irrespective of religion, region and communities, Modi is being supported. Our goal is a Congress-free India and corruption- free India,"TDP leader N Chandrababu Naidu said.
