Trinadha Rao, another leader representing the 82nd Ward of the Greater Visakhapatnam Municipal Corporation (GVMC), said, “Speaking on the stage in the presence of our party president N. Chandrababu Naidu was a proud moment for me. Such meetings are necessary to boost the morale of the party workers from the grassroots level.”
The meeting began at 10 a.m. and ended at 5.30 p.m. The party cadres reached the venue well ahead of the programme schedule. Around 5,000 people gathered at the venue. The V-Convention was jam-packed. The TDP supporters and the general public watched the proceedings from the parking area where LED screens were set up.
“The food was good. Buttermilk helped us beat the sweltering heat,” said P. Swarnalatha, a woman from Narsipatnam.
Another party leader Venugopal, said, “The TDP should announce tickets before the elections. I brought this issue to the notice of Mr. Naidu.”
The National Highway-16 was packed with hundreds of cars and two-wheelers belonging to the party cadres. Around 100 police personnel were deployed at the venue of the TDP meeting, said PM Palam Circle Inspector Y. Ramakrishna.
