If there's anyone in politics, who labelled himself as dynamic leader and hi-tech person, it has to be Nara Chandrababu Naidu. With his padayatra ringing alarms in political circles, we are bringing you this story.  

Once upon a time Babu was a dynamic chief minister, who was hailed by the western media too. Be it bringing Hyderabad into limelight or boosting sports in the state, Chandrababu Naidu was being hailed by eminent people. The same person is now on roads mingling with people. And did people support him? If this is the question, then the answer is undoubtedly a big yes. Right from adolescents to aged, Chandrababu has been well received in Anantapur district.

If you again question as to how grandly they received, then there are n number of examples to prove public's love towards Naidu.  On hearing that Naidu was coming to their village, people of Shirpi (in Belagappa village) people covered the roads with layers of flowers as a token of love. As Naidu walked on those flowers, people rejoiced. And they even crowned him.

You might have so far seen leaders visiting houses of the poor only in movies. But for the first time, without any ulterior motive (since elections are not round the corner), Chandrababu Naidu entered a house in the slum area. He didn't pose for any photographs while he wiped the tears. Nor asked the media to click him when he gave financial help to them. Yes, Chandrababu Naidu was moved after he heard the problems from that household and immediately rendered financial help. Also, he gave Rs. 12,000 to students and women.

Looking at the solid response Vastunna Meekosam is evoking, the political observers are saying that Chandrababu Naidu adorning the throne of chief minister in 2014 is inevitable. Will he come back to power to make the state Swarnandhra Pradesh?

Well, the answer to this question can only be known after two years. But, padayatra undoubtedly holds mirror up to people's hearts.
