Amaravati: In a key drive for the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP), the Telugu Desam Party (TDP), which recently pulled out its ministers from the Narendra Modi-led-government, left the National Democratic Alliance (NDA) on Friday.

“TDP withdrew support from NDA, which did injustice to AP, TDP President Chandrababu Naidu took this decision in an emergency teleconference with party politburo members and MPs, which was unanimously supported. TDP is to also introduce no-confidence motion against NDA govt” said AP CMO

TDP leaders CM Ramesh, Thota Narsimhan, Ravindra Babu and others addressed the media in Delhi after exiting NDA and asserted ‘BJP means 'Break Janta Promise’. They also added that they will be moving a no-confidence motion on Monday.

“It is unfortunate. We tried our best to be together but the present government ignored the sentiments & emotions of people of Andhra Pradesh, Emergency politburo was conducted in which TDP president N Chandrababu Naidu took decision to withdraw from NDA”, said YS Chowdary, TDP in Delhi.

Now The TDP would carry no-confidence motion notice against the BJP-led-government at the Centre in the interest of Andhra Pradesh as Prime Minister Narendra Modi has meted out 'injustice' to the state, Chief Minister N Chandrababu Naidu said on Thursday.

Naidu had stated this in the state Assembly hours after YSR Congress, TDP's opponent in the state, gave notice for approaching a no-confidence motion against the Narendra Modi-led-government, in the milieu of the Centre's negative response to grant special category status to Andhra Pradesh.

The TDP's assessment to leave the NDA was taken commonly by the party politburo.

"We will support a no-confidence motion, whoever moves it. We will be ready for that and our 16-17 MPs will fully support that. We will co-operate with whoever fights for the state s rights," Naidu had asserted the state Assembly yesterday.

 AP CM N Chandrababu Naidu-led TDP, as well as other local parties, are really unhappy that the Centre has denied giving special status to Andhra Pradesh. The TDP pulling out of the NDA alliance hasn't come as a complete blow, considering two TDP members left the Narendra Modi ministry in Delhi on March 8.
