YSRCP Leader Y.S. Jagan Mohan Reddy Has Exposed TDP Government’s Concocted Official Figures.

Amaravati, Andhra Pradesh; December 2025: In a sharp political attack, former Andhra Pradesh Chief Minister Y.S. Jagan Mohan Reddy accused the ruling TDP Government of presenting “cooked” and misleading economic figures regarding the State’s Gross State Domestic Product (GSDP).

In a post shared on social media on Tuesday, Jagan alleged that the advance estimates released by Chief Minister N. Chandrababu Naidu for the first half of FY 2025-26 were deliberately manipulated to project a false picture of robust economic performance.

Jagan stated that while the Government may alter advance estimates, it cannot influence the audited State accounts prepared by the Comptroller and Auditor General (CAG). “The economic reality conveyed by the CAG accounts shows abysmally low revenue growth, unprecedented borrowings, low capital expenditure, weak consumption and investment, and alarming deficits“, he said, accusing the Government of presiding over “rampant corruption” and plundering State revenues.

TDP Government’s cooked figures exposed!

Yesterday, Mr. Chandrababu Naidu released the advance estimates for the GSDP during the first half of this financial year 2025-26. As correctly pointed out by @ncbn Garu, the Government prepared the figures under his guidance, ‘to deceive’. As is evident, Government can cook up figures pertaining to advance estimates of GSDP but cannot fudge State Government accounts audited by the Comptroller and Auditor General of India.

The fiscal performance can be ascertained from the State accounts figures released by the CAG. These accounts are not prepared under the advice of Mr. Chandrababu Naidu and they are indeed a compilation of the actual receipts and expenditure of the State Government. The economic reality as conveyed by the accounts for the first half of this financial year released by the CAG is that, the State is suffering from abysmally low growth in State Government’s revenues, unprecedented levels of State Government borrowings, worryingly low capital expenditure. low levels of consumption and investment in the economy, alarming levels of revenue and fiscal deficits. It is also apparent that the State Government revenues are being plundered owing to rampant corruption

When this is the factual position, the TDP alliance Government attempts to deceive the people into believing that the State’s economy is booming.

I would like to remind Mr. Chandrababu Naidu of the words of the great Abraham Lincoln, “You can fool all the people some of the time and some of the people all the time but you cannot fool all the people all the time”.

Can Mr. Chandrababu Naidu answer the following,

– If the State’s economy indeed flourishing, then why is your Government facing this level of fiscal stress?

– If the GSDP growth during the 5 year period of your Government between 2014-19 was so commendable then why is the State’s contribution to National GDP only 4.45% as against the corresponding figure of 4.78% during 2019-24?

– If the State’s economy did perform so admirably during the TDP regime 2014-19, then why has the State’s rank in per-capita income not improved by even one notch during your regime?

I request everyone to go through the attached slides that expose the truth behind Mr. Chandrababu Naidu’s claims about his performance and allegations about the State’s performance during the YSRCP Government (2019-24).

Referring to Abraham Lincoln’s famous quote about deception, i.e., “You can fool all the people some of the time and some of the people all the time, but you cannot fool all the people all the time“. Jagan said the TDP alliance was trying to mislead the public into believing the economy was booming, even as fiscal indicators told a different story. He posed a series of questions to Naidu. He asked, “If the economy is flourishing, why is the State facing severe fiscal stress?” Then he asked, “If GSDP growth under TDP (2014-19) was as strong as claimed, why has Andhra Pradesh’s contribution to national GDP fallen from 4.78% (2019-24) to 4.45%?” The third and final question he asked was, “If the economy performed admirably under TDP earlier, why did the State’s per-capita income ranking not improve?” Jagan urged the public to review the detailed slides he shared, which he said exposed the “truth” behind Naidu’s performance claims and allegations against the YSRCP Government’s 2019-24 tenure. The whole presentation was made available via the link in his post, intensifying the political debate over Andhra Pradesh’s fiscal health and economic trajectory.
