Nara Lokesh has taken charge as National Working President of the Telugu Desam Party, marking a major leadership shift. His rise reflects a transition toward younger leadership after playing a key role in the party’s 2024 comeback.  

N. Chandrababu Naidu, one of the most prominent and experienced leaders in Indian politics, celebrates his 76th birthday, marking a remarkable journey filled with leadership, resilience, and vision. Born on April 20, 1950, Naidu has played a crucial role in shaping the political and developmental landscape of Andhra Pradesh. As the national president of the Telugu Desam Party, he continues to remain an influential figure both at the state and national levels. Chandrababu Naidu’s political journey began during his college days, where he actively participated in student politics. He started his career with the Youth Congress in the 1970s and was elected as a Member of the Legislative Assembly (MLA) in 1978. Over the years, he steadily rose through the ranks, serving as Minister for Rural Development between 1983 and 1989. In 1995, he took over as Chief Minister of Andhra Pradesh, succeeding his father-in-law N. T. Rama Rao. He went on to serve consecutive terms from 1995 to 2004, becoming one of the longest-serving chief ministers in the state’s history. Known for his forward-thinking approach, Naidu gained recognition for transforming Andhra Pradesh into a hub for technology and investment. His tech-savvy governance style helped attract global investors and positioned the state as a key player in India’s IT growth story. Over the years, he has received several prestigious recognitions, including IT Indian of the Millennium, Business Person of the Year, and South Asian of the Year. His contributions also extended to national policy-making, where he chaired the National IT Panel under the NDA government. Even today, Chandrababu Naidu remains deeply committed to public service. His focus continues to be on large-scale development projects such as Amaravati capital city and the Polavaram irrigation project, along with attracting investments to boost the state’s economy. Known for his disciplined and work-driven lifestyle, he often prioritizes governance over personal celebrations, reflecting his dedication to progress and development. Beyond politics, Naidu’s personal life also reflects strong family ties. He is married to Nara Bhuvaneshwari and has a son, Nara Lokesh, who is also active in politics. With a legacy built on administrative strength and visionary leadership, Chandrababu Naidu continues to shape the future of Andhra Pradesh, reinforcing his status as one of India’s most impactful political leaders.

In a notable twist in the TDP office vandalism case, several YCP leaders including Lella Appireddy, Talasila Raghuram, and Devineni Avinash have resorted to a famous dialogue from Jr NTR’s movie Adhurs — "Telidu… Gurthuledu… Marchipoya" (don’t know, forgot, don’t recall) — during their police investigation. This dialogue has humorously yet significantly become a part of their defense strategy. The Supreme Court had earlier directe
