Nara Chandrababu Naidu ( born 20 April 1950) is an Indian politician and current leader of opposition of the Andhra Pradesh Legislative Assembly. He was also the leader of the opposition of the Andhra Pradesh Legislative Assembly from 2004 to 2014. He is also the former Chief Minister of Andhra Pradesh serving from 2014 to 2019.

He is the National President of the Telugu Desam Party (TDP).[2][3] He also served as the convenor of National Democratic Alliance (NDA). He suffered a major political setback in the 2019 Andhra Pradesh Legislative Assembly Elections by winning only 23 seats out of the 175 assembly segments.[4] This was a never before seen defeat in the history of Telugu Desam Party (TDP). His son, Nara Lokesh too lost in the elections from Mangalagiri Assembly Constituency.[5]

Early life and education

Naidu was born on 20 April 1950[6] at Naravaripalle, Tirupati district in present-day Andhra Pradesh in an agricultural family to Nara Kharjura Naidu[7] and his wife Amanamma.[a][8] He has a younger brother Nara Ramamurthy Naidu and two younger sisters.[9] Naidu has vitiligo, an autoimmune disease which causes white patches on the skin.[10]

Since his village had no school, Naidu attended primary school in Seshapuram up to class five and the Chandragiri Government High School up to class 10. He completed his B.A. degree in 1972 from Sri Venkateshwara Arts College, Tirupati.[8][11] He did his Masters in Economics from Sri Venkateswara University.[12] In 1974, under the guidance of professor Dr. D. L. Narayana he started work on his Ph.D. on the topic of Economic ideas of Professor N. G. Ranga, but did not complete his Ph.D.[8]

Early political career in Congress Party

Naidu started his political activities as a students' union leader in Sri Venkateswara University while pursuing his Masters.[13] In 1975, he joined Indian Youth Congress and became the president for its local chapter in Pulicherla.[8][13] After the emergency was imposed on the country in 1975, he became a close supporter of Sanjay Gandhi.[8][14]

With the help of N. G. Ranga, Naidu secured a candidacy from the Congress party, under its 20% quota for the youth, and became an MLA for the Chandragiri constituency in 1978 at the age of 28.[8][13] He served as a director of Andhra Pradesh Small Scale Industries Development Corporation.[12] Later, he was appointed as the minister for cinematography in T. Anjaiah's government. He became the youngest MLA and the youngest minister, at the age of 28, in Andhra Pradesh at that time. After becoming a minister, he dropped his PhD program.[13]

In 1979, he played a crucial role in electing G. Kuthuhalamma as Chittoor Zilla Parishad chief, against the official Congress candidate. Following this, he was suspended from the party for two months.[8]

As the cinematography minister, Naidu came in contact with N. T. Rama Rao, a popular film star in Telugu cinema. In 1980, he married Bhuvaneswari, Rao's second daughter.[13][8]

Second term as Chief Minister (1999–2004)

NTR who was expelled from the Telugu Desam Party died in the year 1995 and the party continued under the leadership of Chandrababu Naidu. The party won a majority in the state legislature, with 185 of 294 seats in the Assembly and 29 of 42 seats in the Parliament in the 1999 general election, making it the second-largest party in the BJP-led NDA coalition government.[15]

Assassination attempt

On 1 October 2003, Naidu survived a land mine blast by People's War Group (PWG) near Alipiri tollgate, within the vicinity of Alipiri police station.[16][17] A total of 17 claymore mines were planted, of which 9 exploded.

Losing again in 2009 elections

Chandrababu Naidu who lost miserably in 2004 Assembly elections repeated the same result again in 2009 Assembly elections. He formed a grand alliance with TRS Party, which pitched for the separate state of Telangana and also with CPI and CPM. This didn't go well with the people and he experienced the same defeat again. He and his party were restricted to only 92 seats out of 294 seats in the state assembly. Y. S. Rajasekhara Reddy became the Chief Minister of the state again for the second time in 2009.

Death of YSR and state's bifurcation

The then Chief Minister, Y. S. Rajasekhar lost his life in a tragic helicopter crash in 2009 just after his second term as the Chief Minister. Congress Party had ultimately given advantage to Naidu politically by bifurcating the state hastily. Chandrababu Naidu too supported the bifurcation.[18]

Third term as Chief Minister (2014–2019)

Congress Party bifurcated the state hastily and the people felt of having an experienced leader as the Chief Minister. Chandrababu Naidu took this as an advantage and formed an alliance again with the Bharatiya Janata Party and Jana Sena Party and returned to power in Andhra Pradesh state, winning 102 seats out of 175 seats.[19] The inclusion of Bharatiya Janata Party in the alliance made people believe that the state may get developed due to the central government's support. This made TDP win an outright majority. Naidu took oath as the first Chief Minister of the residuary state of Andhra Pradesh at Mangalagiri on the grounds of Acharya Nagarjuna University near Guntur.[20]

2015 Cash for Vote Case

Main article: 2015 Cash for Vote Scam

The 2015 cash-for-votes scam was a political scandal, the second scandal of its kind since the 2008 cash-for-votes scandal. It started off when the TDP leaders of Telangana state were caught in video footage, aired in the media, offering bribes to a nominated MLA, Elvis Stephenson, for his vote in the 2015 elections of the Telangana Legislative Council. The TDP MLA Revanth Reddy was arrested by the Telangana Police when he was offering ₹50 lakhs to Stephenson. Reddy was then presented before the court and was sent to jail. Similarly, the phone conversation, which was quoted as the voice of Naidu with Stephenson was aired in the news media.[21][22]

In August 2016, Alla Ramakrishna Reddy filed a petition with a report from a forensic laboratory which confirmed the voice of Naidu in the tape to be genuine but audio has no evidence of him directly talking about the deal of vote for note. The Anti-Corruption Bureau (ACB) court order the Telangana division of the ACB to investigate on the report.[23][needs update] Naidu was not included in the preliminary charge sheet filed by the Enforcement Directorate in May 2021 in connection with the case.[24]

Making his son a minister in the cabinet

Chandrababu Naidu after becoming the chief minister made his son, Nara Lokesh a Minister under his cabinet.[25] This received criticism as his son, Nara Lokesh didn't even contest as an MLA for once and was given a cabinet minister through an MLC post. This didn't go well with people and also political observers.[26]

Inviting 23 MLAs from YSRCP into TDP

Chandrababu Naidu during his regime as CM inducted 23 MLAs from YSR Congress Party into TDP and offered cabinet ministries to 4 of those MLAs.[27] This has become controversial as such amount of induction never happened. Angry at this, Y. S. Jagan Mohan Reddy boycotted the state assembly sessions.[28]

Suppressing Special Status and receiving backlash from people

BJP promised special status to Andhra Pradesh after bifurcation but went back on it. Chandrababu Naidu who was in alliance with BJP too was not bothered about it and started going against people's will.[29] There were many appeals from people to him to support the movement.[30] But he put a blind eye on it.[31] He even publicly said that there was no use with special status and continued in the alliance with BJP till 2018.[32][33]

People started doing agitations and movements for the Speical status across the state.[34] Chandrababu Naidu suppressed all these agitations and movements.[35][36] Some of TDP leaders even openly criticized people for these agitations.[37] This ultimately brought a great backlash from people. After sensing this great backlash from the people, he took a U- turn on the issue and started supporting the movement.[38][39] This U-turn completely damaged him and made people move away from him.[38]

Coming out of alliance with BJP and Dharma Porata Deeksha

After receiving a great backlash from people regarding the special status, Chandrababu Naidu who formed an alliance with BJP before 2014 elections came out of the alliance fearing a defeat in the upcoming 2019 elections. Ironically, he started accusing the Prime Minister, Narendra Modi and some of the leaders of BJP for not granting Special Status to Andhra Pradesh.[35] He had also ridiculously started supporting the Special Status movement after suppressing the very movement for so long.[39] This brought a bad name to him from people's side heavily.[40]

He even went forward and planned a movement, Dharma Porata Deeksha accusing BJP and Narendra Modi of not granting Special Status to Andhra Pradesh. He even planned the movement in Delhi and took many TDP leaders to Delhi by a train and staged a hunger-strike protest.[41] All these political gimmicks didn't go well with the people.[42] These U-turn tactics have ultimately damaged him completely.[39]

Alliance with TDP's rival Congress Party

Chandrababu Naidu after coming out of alliance with BJP formed an alliance with Telugu Desam Party's rival Congress Party.[43] This didn't go well with people and many political observers.[44] Congress Party is regarded as the rival party of TDP for many years.[44] It is also the party which bifurcated the state hastily. Forming an alliance with such Party completely damaged the image of TDP.[45]

Historic Defeat in 2019 elections

Chandrababu Naidu suffered a historic defeat in the hands of his political rival, Y. S. Jagan Mohan Reddy in 2019 Andhra Prdesh Assembly Elections. His party was restricted to just 23 seats out of the total 175 assembly seats. This came as a humiliating and also a never before seen defeat in the history of Telugu Desam Party. Y. S. Jagan Mohan Reddy became the Chief Minister of the state by winning 151 seats out of the total 175 assembly seats. This is a greatest victory in the state elections history.

In addition to this, his son, Nara Lokesh who contested from Mangalagiri Constituency as an MLA too with a small margin in the elections. Such was the amount of backlash he received from people.

Leader of the opposition (2019–present)

The Telugu Desam Party (led by Naidu) lost the 2019 general elections to the YSR Congress Party led by Y. S. Jagan Mohan Reddy. It was the party's biggest defeat since its inception in 1982; TDP won 23 assembly seats out of 175 and 3 Lok Sabha seats out of 25.[citation needed]

Business career

The Heritage Group (HFL) was incorporated by Naidu in 1992. In 1994, HFL went for public issue to raise resources. Currently, the organisation is being led by Nara Brahmani, Naidu's daughter-in-law. Heritage has hundreds of outlets throughout Andhra Pradesh and Telangana and a significant presence in Karnataka, Kerala, Tamil Nadu, Maharashtra, Odisha, NCR-Delhi, Haryana, Rajasthan, Punjab, Uttar Pradesh, Gujarat, Uttarakhand, and Himachal Pradesh which comprises a solid portion of Naidu's current assets.[46]
