Andhra Pradesh Chief Minister N. Chandrababu Naidu on Thursday predicted victory for the NDA in the upcoming Bihar state legislative assembly elections.
Addressing a ‘Super GST – Super Savings’ public meeting here, Mr Naidu said Prime Minister Narendra Modi’s victory march should continue.
“We pray to Srisailam Bhramaramba to give strength to Mr. Modi to continue to serve the nation and lead us towards Viksit Bharat. We are very confident that he will secure a big victory for NDA in Bihar,” he said.
Mr. Naidu said that the NDA government led by Mr. Modi has introduced GST 2.0 reforms under the ‘One Country – One Tax’ system to benefit the common man by reducing prices of essential commodities. He said the reforms benefit all sections of people. “Each family has ₹15,000 a year from savings,” he said.
“Andhra Pradesh organizes monthly GST Utsav to create awareness among people about the benefits of GST reforms and 98,000 events have been organized as part of this,” Mr. Naidu said.
Mr. Naidu thanked Mr. Modi on behalf of the people of the state for introducing GST reforms and congratulated the Prime Minister for his 25 years of service to the people. He described Mr. Modi as a unique leader serving the nation with utmost commitment.
“The 21st century belongs to Mr. Modi and he is the right leader at the right place at the right time. The country is very lucky to have a leader like Mr. Modi. I have never seen a leader like Mr. Modi who works without rest or break,” Mr. Naidu said.
The chief minister credited Mr Modi for ushering in game-changing reforms “that have made India strong and progressive and respected globally”.
“By 2047, India will be a superpower. Under Mr. Modi’s leadership, India has become the 4th largest economy and Operation Sindhoor has shown India’s strength,” he said.
Mr. Naidu said, “AP is progressing in many sectors in collaboration with the central government. Rayalaseema will be developed as a horticulture center and a high court bench will be set up in Kurnool. Orvakal will be developed as a drone city. Green energy, food processing and cement industries will be developed.”
