It is learnt that AP Chief Minister Chandrababu Naidu has given green signal for former Finance Minister of united AP state Anam Rama Narayana Reddy to join TDP. He has been trying to return to TDP for last few months but couldn’t get readmission due to objections raised by Nellore district TDP leaders. It is learnt that Chief Minister Chandrababu Naidu, during his recent visit to Nellore district, convinced his party leaders by assuring them that their importance in the party and the government won’t be affected with his entry.

Actually, Anam Rama Narayana Reddy served as Minister for Roads and Buildings in the NT Rama Rao cabinet. Later, he jumped into Congress party in 1991 and bagged minister posts in Congress Governments. He served as Minister for Information and Public Relations, Municipal Administration and Urban Development in late Rajashekar Reddy’s cabinet. Later, he becomes Minister for Finance and Planning in the Kiran Kumar Reddy cabinet.

Since, the Congress party’s future seems to be blink in the state, like many other leaders of the party, Anam Rama Narayana Reddy is also abandoning it when it badly needs his help for retaining its lost glory. Perhaps, many others are also waiting for their turn to quit the Congress party. Now it appears that PCC President Raghuveera Reddy alone is representing the party in the state.
