There is much to learn from PM Modi's hard work: Chandrababu Naidu

Amaravati, Oct 18: Andhra Pradesh Chief Minister N. Chandrababu Naidu on Friday said that there is much to learn from Prime Minister Narendra Modi, particularly his persistence and hard work.

The Telugu Desam Party (TDP) president said though Narendra Modi has become the Prime Minister for three consecutive terms, he has already started thinking of the next elections.

Naidu said he was addressing a meeting of TDP MPs, MLAs, MLCs, and other senior leaders at the party headquarters at Mangalagiri.

The TDP leader said after the swearing-in of the Haryana Chief Minister, the National Democratic Alliance (NDA) held its meeting in Chandigarh.

"Prime Minister Modi sat in the meeting for five hours. He doesn’t need to be there for such a long time but he has already started preparing for the next elections," said Naidu, whose party is a key ally of PM Modi-led NDA government at the Centre.

"PM Modi's hard work and discipline are behind his success, and he always ensures that no leader in the party makes any mistake. He takes decisions keeping in mind only the welfare of the people," the TDP supremo said.

Naidu stated that Narendra Modi became the Prime Minister for the third time because of his persistence and hard work. He told the TDP leaders that the BJP secured victory six times in Gujarat and three times in Haryana.

Naidu further said that the TDP never hankered for power but always strived for the well-being of the nation and the state.

"We played a crucial role in national politics and emerged strong. When the country was in deep crisis, the TDP played a key role in bringing the nation out of the mess," he said.

He asserted that the TDP had played a constructive role in national politics.

"This apart, without seeking any posts in the erstwhile Atal Bihari Vajpayee government, we worked hard for the progress of the nation. The TDP is a party with total credibility and has always strived hard only for the well-being of the nation and the state," the Andhra Pradesh Chief Minister said.
