Politics in AP getting hot in this summer.Days after strongly criticizing Prime Minister Narendra Modi for undertaking a day-long fast, Andhra Pradesh Chief Minister Chandrababu Naidu is undertaking a day long fast as Dharma Poratam on Friday.Interestingly, he said the YSRCP-sponsored bandh has caused Rs 12 crore loss to the APSRTC. But, today, he himself is fasting and not just that, he is making all his cadres to fast wherever they are. The total cost of the arrangements for Chandrababu’s fast is said to be around Rs 30 crore. The fast site, Indira Gandhi Stadium, has been fully decked up. Tents are being erected to enable 15000 persons sit at the site. There would be very good sound systems and the stage would be decorated aesthetically. Coolers have been installed. Those sitting on deeksha would be supplied with cool drinks and butter milk. 


Colleges and DWCRA groups have been asked to send their members so that there is a good attendance at the deeksha site. 200 RTC buses and 100 private buses have been pressed into service. The whole expenditure is being born by the state exchequer. The party is taking no chances as the earlier Nava Nirmana Deeksha at Vijayawada was a complete failure and empty chairs greeted Chandrababu.
