A survey was conducted in all districts of the state as per the instructions given by the AP CM Chandrababu Naidu to rank the MLAs based on their services and connectivity to the people of their constituencies and to know how well they take the government's welfare programs to the people.
Interestingly, Natasimham Nandamuri Balakrishna has stood as number one MLA in Ananthapur district. Hearing the news, fans have gone gaga over the achievement of this Hindupur's MLA.
However, for critics this survey is something like a family affair. Some of them opine that this rank was the presentation of CBN to his viyyankudu. " Had this survey been conducted by a neutral and unbiased agency, it would have become more authentic and credible survey. Being an actor, Balakrishna has been busy doing movies and scarcely, he is seen in his constituency. In that case, how come would he be number one MLA?," pointed it out a critic.
But then, Nandamuri fans say it was because of Balakrishna's influence many welfare programs are getting implemented properly in the constituency such that he deserves to get number one place as an MLA.
