TDP Chief and Andhra Pradesh Chief Minister Chandrababu Naidu has taken a significant turn in his approach, indicating a shift from his past practices. Previously, there was a perception that Naidu’s approach varied significantly between being in power and being in opposition. When in power, he focused intensely on governance and development, making notable strides such as advancing infrastructure projects like Pattiseema, and Polavaram, and establishing the foundation for Amaravati, the capital city. However, his recent behavior signals a marked change.
Now, as he returns to power, Naidu is introducing a new strategy, emphasizing strictness and accountability within his party. He has made it clear that any form of misconduct, whether by party workers or leaders, will not be tolerated. This shift is not merely rhetorical but is being actively demonstrated through his actions.
One of the recent controversies involving TDP MLA Adimulam has amplified this change. Allegations of sexual misconduct by Adimulam against a female party leader have stirred significant controversy.

The victim has publicly accused Adimulam of sexual assault and threats, which has intensified the political uproar. In response, Naidu has taken a serious stance, promptly suspending Adimulam from the party and directing the party’s state president to issue formal orders regarding the suspension. Naidu’s prompt and decisive action underscores his commitment to upholding party discipline and legal standards.
Naidu’s vigilance extends to monitoring party affairs closely, even amidst busy administrative responsibilities. He has warned party members that actions damaging the party’s reputation will not be overlooked. This includes addressing issues with party members who deviate from the party’s guidelines. In a recent cabinet meeting, Naidu highlighted that mistakes by a few legislators could tarnish the party’s reputation, emphasizing the need for strict adherence to party norms.
Overall, Chandrababu Naidu’s recent actions reflect a renewed focus on discipline and integrity within the TDP, signaling a no-tolerance policy for any behavior that could harm the party’s image.
