AP CM warns ministers to forget differences or lose posts

Andhra Pradesh Chief Minister Chandrababu Naidu warned his ministers Ganta Srinivasa Rao and Ch Ayyanna Patrudu that they would lose their posts if they failed to keep aside their differences and work together.
Hundreds of party workers cheered loudly after Naidu warned both the ministers who were present on the dais at a Telugu Desam Party (TDP) workers' meeting held at the Port Kalavani Auditorium here today.
Addressing TDP workers, Naidu raised the issue of differences between the two ministers and said that he had given ministerial posts to both Ayyanna and Ganta who are both from Visakhapatnam district since they are talented and capable.

He said that several TDP workers and MLAs felt that there were differences between the two cabinet ministers.
He said that both ministers must work together and ensure that they had no differences in order to strengthen the TDP.
Naidu repeatedly hinted at personal differences between the two ministers at the meeting, while both Ganta and Ayyanna were silent.

He asked Ganta to strengthen the party in Vizag city and Ayyanna to strengthen the party in Anakapalle.
During the interaction with the TDP workers, Naidu faced an awkward situation after some party workers raised their voices against MLAs and ministers from the district, adding that TDP workers are losing faith in them, since they were misusing their powers.

Naidu also warned the MLAs not to interfere any issue that would send out a wrong message to officials and party workers.
