**Headline: CPI(M) Slams TDP-Led Alliance Government in Andhra Pradesh as “Bundle of Failures”**

**Tirupati, June 17, 2025** – The Communist Party of India (Marxist) [CPI(M)] has sharply criticized the one-year performance of the Telugu Desam Party (TDP)-led alliance government in Andhra Pradesh, branding it a “bundle of failures.” At a press conference in Tirupati on Tuesday, CPI(M) leaders, led by CITU Tirupati district general secretary Kandarapu Murali, released a booklet detailing what they called the government’s shortcomings.

Murali accused TDP leaders N. Chandrababu Naidu and K. Pawan Kalyan of prioritizing political gain over the state’s interests, despite their alliance with the BJP-led NDA at the Centre. The CPI(M) further alleged that the Tirumala Tirupati Devasthanams (TTD) had been embroiled in controversies, hurting the sentiments of Hindu devotees.

According to the CPI(M), minimum wages have remained stagnant for 15 years, while working hours have increased from 10 to 12 hours under the Naidu administration. Speakers at the conference also criticized the alliance for allegedly following similar policies to the previous YSRCP government. The CPI(M) urged the government to learn from its mistakes.
