Modi to skip Naidu swearing-in! Hyderabad: Prime Minister Narendra Modi is learnt to have conveyed his inability to attend the swearing-in function of Chandrababu Naidu. According to sources, the PMO has sent a message to the TDP leadership that Modi might not attend the ceremony as he is busy with the ongoing Parliament session.
But, according to sources, the prime minister has opted to skip Naidu's swearing-in as the BJP Telangana leaders requested him to do so, saying that Modi's open inclination towards Seemandhra is sending wrong signals to Telangana people about saffron party's commitment to the development of new state.
A delegation of TDP MPs, headed by civil aviation minister P Ashok Gajapati Raju, called on Modi and requested him to attend Naidu's swearing-in.
