A Comparision Between TDP and Congress Chief Minsters
1. Mr Chandra Babu naidu was in office and he is being the distinction of serving highest days in office as
Chief Minister of Andhra Pradesh i.e 3378 days(1st
September 1995 to 14 th May 2004)
In congress party Mr Kasu Bramananda Reddy was in office and he is being the second highest days in
Office being 2777 days.(21st
February 1964 to 30 th September 1971)
The third again Mr N T Rama rao garu was in office the total number of days he has served the state of
Andhra Pradesh as chief Minister is 2751 days.( 9 th January 1983 to 16 th August 1984 : 585 DaYS)(16
TH Sep 1984 to 2 nd December 1989 : 1903 Days) ( 12 th December 1994 to 1 September 1995 : 263
Days)
Mr Jalagam Vengal Rao garu served the state complete five years and he is from Congress Party (10 th
December 1973 to 6 th March 1978 for complete one Term)
It is interesting to note thatfrom 6 th march 1978 to 1983 January 9th
we can witness 4 Chief Ministers.
The point I am making here is there is a constant change of Chief ministers by the High Command and It
Shows congress Leaders has less unity inAndhra Pradesh among the members during this period.
Sl nO Name of the Chief Minister(Party Congress) Period (1978 to 1983)
1 Mr Marri chenna Reddy 6th March 1978 to 11 oct 1980
2 Mr T Anjaiah 11 Oct 1980 to 24 th February 1982
3 Mr Bhavanam Venkar Ram 24 th February 1982 to 20 th September 1982
4 Mr Neelam Sanjeeva Reddy 20 th September 1982 to 9 th January 1983
The Telugu Dessham party stormed to power within nine months of its formation in the 1983 Assembly
elections, thusforming the first non-Congress governmentin Andhra Pradesh.
It also achieved the rare distinction of being the first regional party to become the main opposition party
in the Central Government during the 8th
Lok Sabha from 1984 to 1989. The party has governed the
state of Andhra Pradesh twice from 1983 to 1989 and then from 1994 to 2004.
Sl.No Name of the Chief Minister
( Party TDP)
Period 1983 to 1989
1 Mr N T Rama Rao 9 th January to 16 th August 1984
2 Mr Nadendla Bhasker Rao 16 th August 1984 to 16 th September 1984
3 Mr N T Rama Rao 16 th September 1984 to 2 nd December 1989
Again The Congress was in Power from 3 rd December 1989 to 12 th December 1994 again we can see
three Chief Ministerâs Ruled the State and the Same has repeated asit was in the year 1978 to 1983
again the same issue of Leadership
Sl.No Name of the Chief Minister(Party Congress) Period 1989 to 1994
1 Mr Marri Chenna Reddy 3 rd December to 17 th December 1990
2 Mr N janardhan Reddy 17 th December to 9 th October 1992
3 Mr Kotla Vijaya Bhasker Reddy 9 th Oct 1992 to 12 th December 1994
From the Year 12 th December 1994 to 14 th May 2004 and it was Telugu Desham Partyi.e 9 years 3
months and 2 days
2. Sl.No Name of the Chief Minister
( Party TDP)
Period 1994 to 2004
1 Mr N T Rama Rao 12 th December 1994 to 1 September 1995
2 Mr Nara Chandra Babu Naidu 1 September 1995 to 14 th May 2004
The TDP has defeated by the Congress party and Mr Rajashekar Reddy was elected as Chief Minister Of
Andhra Pradesh for Complete 5 Years and 2nd
term also he has defeated the Telugu Desham Party.
So peepinginto what the CMs did to our state, the former leaders tried for state's minimum
development.
Later some of them tried for development of some fields like Education, irrigation projects, science and
technical, etc.Vengala Raoworked against naxalism and development of tribalâs,
NTR has given main emphasis to secure basic necessities and Better administration
while Babu worked more for IT sector and a very good administrator and TD has more discipline in their
party than the congress and
YSR triedfor many areas includingfarmers' development, health, Indiramma illu, scholarshipsetc.
In all these ministers NTR , Nara Chandra babu and YSR were considered as the best when compared to
others. We have to Establish Mr Kiran Kumar Reddy Performance and Itwas a tough time for him to
bring the cordial relations among the three regions leaders
These are My personal Observations and I may be wrong on certain issues but I am confident that I have
compiled the Correct Information Only. It give a check
Nara Chandra Babu YSR
Administration Excellent good
Corruption Less Un believable extent
It Excellent Not Much
Farmerâs Issues average Excellent
Welfare programmes less More
Connectivity to rural areas Given Priorities Less priority
Ring Roads and Outer Ring roads Conceptualized by him Implemented
Long Term Irrigation Projects Not Much Many
Accountability to voter more average
Discipline in the party Excellent Till he was in power , he could
able to control the party later we
know what happened
Arogya Sri -No special programme Very Popular programme
Free seatsin engineering
colleges to bc/scâs and sts
-No Attracted by all the bc âs and
weaker sections
Allegations Not Proved Proved
Monsoonsin their tenure Average/Drought Years Excellent
Deliberation of power to cabinet
ministers
Very Good and every one was
responsible
Single Man and taken the credit
of their Cabinet ministers
Temperament Not Cool Cool
3. Finally I wouldlike to Say That By the above facts it indicates:
The Congress Government Constantly changes the Ministers.
After Mr NCBN, Mr Rajashekar Reddy as CMand we came to know most of the his cabinet members
are facing the CBI and Some of them are in Jail and It shows clearly that they were corrupt and they have
ruined the state.
How can the National Congress Party Strengthen the Party inAndhra Pradesh and they have not
resolved the Issue of Telangana and Keep onPostponing the Issue considerably and It Looks the Telugu
Deshamis on Upper Hand But they are unable to cash the issues.
One Advantage they have that Mr Nara Chandra Babu Naidu toured entire state of Andhra Pradesh and
He is being the Longest days spent in three regions of Andhra Pradesh and travelledlongest kilometers
than any other political leader and He has an edge over others but he has to plan and organize and
execute while selecting the Proper and probable candidates and who has more following in that
constituency should be given top priority.
No doubt that Mt Nara Chandra Babu naidu is known for the Organizing the capabilities and he was
main backbone when NT Rama rao wasin Power and he has planned entire administration and how
come he has lost his confidence levels nowâŠâŠ
Mr YSR Party is being attracted by youth and the young generation and I talked cross section of people
in three regions they say that Mr YSR will be the best optionfor them and itlooks to surprise to
everyone. We cannot under estimate YSR Party and finally they are going tojoin the Congress party
only.
In Telanagan regions the TRS will be an upper hand than the Telugu Deshem party and Congresswill
stand third position in telangana districts. In Coastal Andhra And rayalasemma their will be tough fight
between TDP vs YSR and Congress. The BJP will improve their position considerably in telangana region.
The General Public in general or not worried about how much assets one has acquired and they are
least bothered about them and what they worry about the welfare programmes and free supply of
electricity ,wavier of crop loans , arogyasri , Free education for Bcâs, Sc and Stc and Availability of
Subsidy seed and pesticides. They are looking for the better price in their local markets. The Voter is not
looking for the long term benefits and he is uanable to judge the right pary and the Right candidate. The
Voter is very intelligent and he know whom to vote finally.. and towin the voterâs confidence is a big
question mark to all the political partiesâŠ..
How Long the Political parties for the sake of power they introduce such welfare programmes and and
one hand they are giving lots of welfare programmes and on the other hand the people are becoming
lethargic and theylost their perspective vision and they are depending totally on these welfare
programmes.
4. They should sustain themselves and they should be more independent and able to generate their own
resources as Mr Gandhi was particular about Cottage and small scale and house hold industries and
every village should be self sufficient and we have seen one village in Nizamabad district of telangana
region that they are self sufficientin all aspects and their model should be implemented in other
villages as well then only we will have ( the True Leader) will have lots of satisfaction
