The successful completion of Chandrababu Naidu tour in Warangal without major incidents despite stiff opposition from a determined TRS has proved once again that TDP continues to be organizationally strong at the ground level.
There have been several tense moments on his way, but the TDP chief and his committed cadre withstood the hostile reception at some places to end the show on a positive note. All through his padayatra and later the public meeting at Palakurti, Chandrababu could see the party activists making that extra effort to make his visit a success.
The Palakurti public meeting was impressive with many thousands attending it. There was an isolated incidet of a person throwing show at dais, but the situation was immediately contained. There was of course a large contingent of policemen throwing a protective ring around Chandrababu.
But interestingly, even a few women along with TDP activists thrashed the miscreant and chased him away.
Chandrababu was visibly grateful for the people who turned out to his meeting despite the circumstances surrounding it. Thanking them profusely, he said his responsibility increased manifold with the love and affection shown by them.
He reiterated once agian that he never said anything against Telangana nor will he say anything in future. It was Congress Party which was responsible for the current crisis. KCR would merge his party with Congress, the same way PRP had done, he said.
TRS would most probably say that Chandrababu could visit Warangal with a battalion of policemen. But its intention to repeat a Manukonda in Palakurti did not materilize.
