“There will be more time for development if all the elections in the country happen at once under One Nation One Election concept,” a press release quoted Naidu as saying.

He made these remarks when he visited Sri Busameta Venkateswara Swamy temple located at Dokiparru village in Krishna district’s Gudlavalleru mandal. He also noted that by 2047 India will be a top country in the world and Andhra Pradesh a top state in the country.

Further, the CM appealed to industrialist PV Krishna Reddy, who welcomed him to the temple fair, to uplift below poverty line (BPL) families. Likewise, Naidu called on industrialists to chip in to uplift the poor in every district, mandal and village.
