Amaravati, April 19 (IANS) Andhra Pradesh Chief Minister and Telugu Desam Party (TDP) national President N. Chandrababu Naidu will participate in the election campaign for the National Democratic Alliance (NDA) in Tamil Nadu, the party announced on Sunday.

Chandrababu Naidu will undertake a two-day campaign tour across Tamil Nadu from Monday (April 20).

CM Naidu, who is leading the TDP-led NDA government in Andhra Pradesh, will be visiting Coimbatore, Hosur, Chennai, Madurai and Sattur.

The visit is aimed at energising cadre, strengthening voter connect, and reinforcing the NDA’s development-driven narrative, the TDP said.

The Chief Minister will begin his tour in Coimbatore, where he is scheduled to address a major public meeting in the afternoon. He will then travel to Hosur and proceed to Thalli for a public rally later in the day.

In the evening, the TDP chief will reach Chennai and participate in a large roadshow in Avadi, engaging directly with citizens and NDA supporters.

On the second day, the Chief Minister will travel to Madurai and proceed to Sattur, where he will interact with community leaders and take part in a key campaign event later in the afternoon.

The tour will conclude with his return journey in the evening.

CM Naidu’s campaign assumes significance as the NDA steps up its presence in Tamil Nadu, focusing on governance, economic growth, and inclusive development. Known for his emphasis on technology-led governance and infrastructure expansion, he is expected to articulate the alliance’s vision for Tamil Nadu’s future within India’s broader growth trajectory, the party said.

Campaigning for single-phase Assembly elections in Tamil Nadu will end on April 21.

Voting for all 234 constituencies will take place on April 23, with the counting scheduled for May 4.

The visit reflects a high-energy campaign strategy, combining mass outreach with targeted stakeholder engagement across multiple regions in a short span.
