New Delhi [India], July 17 (HBTV): Andhra Pradesh Chief Minister Chandrababu Naidu met Union Home Minister Amit Shah in Delhi on Tuesday and apprised him of the state's financial condition.

The meeting took place at the residence of Amit Shah.

In a post on X after the meeting, CM Naidu said, "Today in New Delhi, I met with the Hon'ble Union Home Minister, Shri @AmitShahJi, to apprise him of the devastating condition of finances that Andhra Pradesh had slipped into over the past five years. 

Naidu added, "I also discussed the findings of the four White Papers released, outlining the staggering debt accumulated between FY 2019-24 that spiralled our State's finances out of control. Economic incompetence, gross mismanagement, and rampant corruption by the previous government have caused irreparable damage to our State." 

"Honouring the mandate given by our people to the NDA, the Central and State governments will devise a comprehensive recovery plan and bring our State's economy back on track. We shall fulfil people's aspirations together," his post added. 

Earlier, Andhra CM Chandrababu Naidu on Monday accused the previous Jagan Mohan Reddy government of looting natural resources, creating litigation, and exploiting lands and minerals in the state during his tenure. 

He also claimed that forests were deforested under their administration. "We have identified records of their corruption," he added.
