Last year, Naidu was sworn in as the 18th CM of Andhra Pradesh and for the fourth time that Naidu assumed charge as Andhra Chief Minister and the second time after the bifurcation in 2014. Naidu became chief minister for the first time in 1995, before the Andhra Pradesh bifurcation, and he led the state for nine consecutive years until 2004. The TDP supremo returned as the chief minister of the bifurcated Andhra in 2014 and served until 2019.
Naidu had led the TDP-BJP-Janasena National Democratic Alliance to a landslide victory in both the Assembly and parliamentary elections.
The TDP holds the majority in Andhra Pradesh's 175-member assembly with 135 MLAs, while its allies, the Janasena Party, have 21 and the BJP has eight. The opposition YSR Congress Party was confined to a meagre 11. (ANI)
