Telugu Desam Party (TDP) national general secretary N. Lokesh has reiterated his resolve to fulfil the promises made in the recently-released ‘Mission Rayalaseema’ statement.

Mr. Lokesh completed Yuva Galam padayatra in the undivided Kadapa district by walking for 200 km in 16 days. At the fag end of his walkathon in Badvel constituency on June 13 (Tuesday), Mr. Lokesh bowed in reverence to the ‘Rayalaseema land’ before crossing over to the Atmakur constituency in Nellore district.

Mr. Lokesh said that he had learnt fighting spirit and standing against odds from the people of this region. “Having seen the problems such as scarcity of drinking water, lack of irrigation sources, unemployment and migration, I promise to pay back to the region by launching Mission Rayalaseema in letter and spirit if the TDP is voted to power,” he said.

Mr. Lokesh was given a rousing reception by B. Ravichandra Yadav, Somireddy Chandramohan Reddy, Anam Ramanarayana Reddy, Mekapati Chandrasekhar Reddy, Bollineni Venkatarama Rao, Panabaka Krishnaiah, K. Lakshmaiah Naidu among others when he entered Nellore district.
