Vijayawada: BJP national spokesperson and MP GVL Narasimha Rao slammed the TDP here today and said that their party's alliance with TDP was kind of an eclipse or a dark phase for the national party. Speaking to media here today, he said yellow party leaders were threatening BJP leaders over the social media. Just because they are in power threatening people will never work and BJP leaders are not afraid, he said.

GVL said it has turned into a habit for every Tom, Dick and Harry to criticise BJP. He clarified that Andhra Pradesh chief minister N Chandrababu Naidu had accepted Special Package over Special Category Status to the state. He recalled the letter written by state government to Centre informing that under the Special Package Rs 12,572 crores worth of work was ongoing in five projects. The letter also mentioned that there was a need for Rs 17,236 crores for another seven projects, the BJP leader said.

The BJP MP said despite taking huge amounts from the Central government Chandrababu was criticising it. He termed AP CM's protest as a false one protest and said the TDP chief has to apologise to public for holding false protests. He was surprised that central government had considered the request for Kadapa steel plant and railway zone, but Chandrababu was still protesting. The Centre was releasing funds for Polavaram, which is a gift to Andhra people from Prime Minister Narendra Modi, he added.
