Telugu Desam is the only party which can withstand the onslaught of Congress party in the State. Many parties have sprouted like mushrooms to oppose Congress but finally, either merge with Congress or had gone into oblivion, said TDP chief Nara Chandrababu Naidu here on Monday.
Interacting with the media after Thota Naveen joined the TDP in his presence, the DP observed PRP which supported Congress in the Rajya Sabha elections will merge with Congress sooner or later. Thota Naveen was the PRP district leader of East Godavari. He along with his supporters joined Telugu Desam on Monday at the NTR Trust Bhavan.
Passing scathing remarks on the local political parties, Chadnrababu predicted that even the Telangana Rashtra Samiti after the by elections will merge with Congress.
Telugu Desam has its own standing and will fight for the self respect of Telugus. We fight for the people and we are for the people, the former chief minister noted.
``The ruling congees leaders have gone crazy and so they are going mad after money. To procure money they will stoop down to any level. They are even ready to sell the state,’’ Chandrababu alleged.
