andhra pradesh gave Chandrababu Naidu a thumping majority, expecting a revival after years of misrule. But what are people getting instead? Skyrocketing prices, mounting debt, and a state slipping deeper into crisis. For a man who sells himself as a “visionary,” Naidu is starting to look less like a reformer and more like just another politician fattening himself on people’s misery.
Here’s why Andhra feels cheated—yet again:
1. electricity Bills That Burn a Hole in People’s Pockets
From domestic consumers to farmers, everyone is groaning under unbearable electricity charges. Instead of relief, bills are rising every month, turning a basic necessity into a luxury.
2. petrol and diesel Prices Through the Roof
While citizens struggle to afford cooking oil and vegetables, Naidu’s government is gleefully squeezing them with back-breaking petrol and diesel prices. Every commute, every delivery, every auto ride costs more—while leaders enjoy VIP fuel perks.
3. A Debt Mountain That’s Crushing the Future
The debt burden since 2019 has ballooned into a ticking time bomb. These aren’t just numbers on paper—this debt is eating into welfare, infrastructure, and the very survival of future generations. Yet, leaders behave as if it’s business as usual.
4. Looting Disguised as Governance
Contracts, tenders, projects—everything looks like an open loot bazaar. The people hoped for transparency, but all they see is politicians lining their pockets while the common man bleeds dry.
5. Society Stuck in Caste & Religious Traps
The saddest part? Despite all this daylight robbery, society remains divided along caste and religious lines. people are too busy defending their political “side” to notice their state being sold piece by piece.
🔥 Bottom Line: andhra pradesh didn’t vote for Naidu just to watch him squeeze the people harder than ever. With a massive mandate, he had the chance to prove himself as the visionary he claims to be. Instead, he’s proving that power in Andhra is just a revolving door for looters—while citizens pay the ultimate price.
