Andhra CM Chandrababu Naidu describes PM Modi as 'Mahishasur'

AMARAVATI:  Andhra Chief Minister and Telugu Desam Party (TDP) Chief N Chandrababu Naidu has described PM Narendra Modi as Mahishasura and said, who has to be defeated by "Bengal Durga"  (Mamata Banerjee) to bring peace and harmony to the country.

BJP while reacting over his remark said Mr. Naidu is "suffering from mental illness" and he was making such statements out of fear of losing the elections.

The Telugu Desam Party in a tweet said "Naidu has severely criticized PM Narendra Modi again, this time from West Bengal soil (at a public meeting at Kharagpur). He described Narendra Modi as Mahishasura and Mamata Banerjee as Bengal Durga."

"He said Bengal Durga has to defeat Mahishasura (PM Modi) in Delhi to bring peace and prosperity to the country," the party said on its official Twitter handle. In an apparent dig at opposition leader and YSR Congress Party chief Jagan Mohan Reddy, the TDP also quoted Mr. Naidu as saying the BJP was supporting an alleged economic offender.

"Considering himself as an emperor and with an aim to control regional states, Narendra Modi and his soul Amit Shah are supporting a hardcore economic offender in AP," the tweet said.

BJP's Andhra Pradesh president Kanna Lakshminarayana while lashing out at Andhra CM, said people of Andhra Pradesh do not take him seriously. "He does not understand what he talks. None has taken up a negative campaign against Modi as much as Naidu has done. He is making such comments out of fear of losing elections," Lakshminarayana told PTI. "He (Naidu) is "suffering from mental illness," he further said.
