Telugu Desam Party chief Chandrababu Naidu, on Wednesday, remembered the services of TDP founder late NT Rama Rao, both to the film industry and the State. Chandrababu Naidu, along with party State president Atchen Naidu and other senior leaders, paid rich tributes to the party founder on his 27th death anniversary on Wednesday.

Terming NTR a legendary actor, Chandrababu said that he created history by forming the government within a few months after floating TDP.

Chandrababu Naidu said born in an ordinary family, NTR accomplished greatest achievements and wherever Telugu people lived, they really felt proud of their home State.

“A person can excel only in one field, but NTR has gone to a very high level in the fields of films and in politics,” he said.

Stating that TDP had completed 40 years of formation and that the party was observing the 100th birth anniversary of NTR, he said that the leader was a role model for future generations. “NTR always treated the common man as God and today, women are excelling in various fields only because of the foundation laid by NTR,” Chandrababu observed.

Leaders like Yanamala Ramakrishnudu could become a member of the Cabinet as NTR took the decision to make the Backward Classes (BCs) partners.

The welfare schemes like Single Window and Rs 2-a-kg rice scheme were launched during Dr NTR regime and foundation was laid for several irrigation projects during the period, he stated.
