Chandrababu Naidu changed his tone towards NDA

Chandrababu Naidu surprised everyone by saying, will smoothly leave (NDA) if central government doesn’t help the state and doesn’t keep up bifurcation promises.

It is true that BJP led NDA government is not giving helping hand to the state that is ruled by it’s ally. Forget about promises like ‘Special Category status’ that do not have any statutory or legal obligations but even those promises that are clearly mentioned in Bifurcation act also have been neglected, like – Vizag railway zone. On Polavaram also, Central government is not giving any helping hand.

Chandra Babu’s statements that “will smoothly leave” expected to give tremors because if really means it, it will change entire political equation of the state. Also there are couple of reasons attributed to the timing of this statement. One reason that CBN supporters say is – being a clever politician, CBN is able to gauge the public pulse in the state that is actually against BJP for not giving special status. So he intentionally gave this statement to put pressure on BJP to keep up bifurcation promises before elections. If they don’t yield, CBN is preparing ground to ditch them for the benefit people. Another argument is – CBN gave this statement exactly on the day when the file on increasing seats in state legislature came to the desk of Union home ministry. By threatening on quitting the alliance he is actually putting the pressure on BJP to increase MLA seats in the state which is very much needed for CBN and TDP as they joined anyone and everyone from opposition party.

Anyway, whether CBN will stay with NDA or not depends on many other things and we have to see how NDA, that is doing threatening politics nowadays, reacts to this!!!
