Naidu made a commitment that his first signature after coming to power would be for a 'Mega DSC' (Teacher Eligibility and Selection Test).
Chandrababu Naidu also criticized the chief minister for his handling of the murder case of his own uncle, implying negligence and injustice. He questioned the voters if they wanted leaders who perform such acts, indirectly accusing the current administration of corruption and failure in public service.
