Chandrababu Naidu set the tone for the 2019 general and state elections by coming down heavily on the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP)-led centre. Naidu also said that the BJP had let down the people of Andhra by failing to give the state special category status. “They are talking about coming to power in Andhra Pradesh, Telangana and other states, but they failed to come to power in Karnataka. We will make Andhra Pradesh an innovation valley and a knowledge-based economy,” said Naidu.
