Andhra Pradesh Chief Minister N Chandrababu Naidu has strongly condemned terrorism, asserting that it holds no place in a democratic society. Speaking at Vajrakarur village in Anantapur district, Naidu addressed the recent killing of tourists in Jammu and Kashmir, labeling the act as an assault on India's sovereignty and humanity.
Naidu urged a robust response from India, asserting that strict action would be taken under Prime Minister Narendra Modi's leadership. He also referenced Operation Sindoor and paid tribute to fallen soldier Murali Naik, encouraging citizens across Andhra Pradesh to join the armed forces and remain vigilant during tumultuous times.
Beyond national security, Naidu highlighted the progress of the Handri-Neeva Sujala Sravanthi project, a transformative irrigation initiative in Rayalaseema. He criticized the previous YSRCP regime for project delays, emphasizing the current administration's commitment to advancing the region's agricultural potential and ensuring water access for drought-prone areas.
