People gave mandate to the Telugu Desam and the Congress wanted to wait for a while to see how it performed, but Chief Minister N. Chandrababu Naidu proved to be an anti-people leader, former Minister P. Balaraju said at a meeting of party workers here on Monday.

“We have to go to the people to highlight the anti-people attitude of the government and make them teach it a lesson,” he said.

Mr. Balaraju along with former Government Whip Dronamraju Srinivasa Rao, city Congress Committee president Behera Bhaskara Rao, former Chairman of VUDA P.S.N. Raju (Ravi), party leaders Bolisetty Satya, Satyanarayana Raju, presidents of party’s various committees released a white paper on the performance of the TDP government in its first 100 days, brought out by the APCC.

Mr. Balaraju, Mr. Srinivasa Rao and other leaders said that the TDP came to power on the false promises made in its election manifesto and ditched farmers, DWCRA groups and unemployed youth by simply avoiding the reliefs it had promised.

Mr. Srinivasa Rao said one could not judge a government in its first 100 days but the Congress was speaking now because Mr. Naidu had promised to fulfil his many promises in that period.
