Nara Bhuvaneswari, the wife of TDP leader Chandrababu Naidu, has witnessed a significant increase in her net worth, attributed to the outstanding performance of FMCG company Heritage Foods, where she holds a considerable stake. Heritage Foods, co-founded by Naidu, experienced a surge in stock price after the Lok Sabha election results, resulting in a gain of Rs 256.10 per share. Bhuvaneswari, the daughter of former Andhra Pradesh Chief Minister N. T. Rama Rao, is the company’s largest shareholder, while Naidu’s son Nara Lokesh also holds a substantial stake in Heritage Foods, leading to an increase in his net worth as well.

Tirupati witnessed a massive influx of supporters as TDP chief N. Chandrababu Naidu and JSP chief Pawan Kalyan held a joint public address. The kilometer-long stretch from Sri Krishnadevaraya Junction to Nalugukalla Mandapam centre was packed with enthusiastic crowds. Despite a delay in the roadshow’s commencement, the leaders’ arrival was met with great excitement. However, brief power outages plunged the area into darkness, prompting allegations of deliberate sabotage. Six corporators from the ruling YSRCP have now joined the JSP, further bolstering the opposition’s presence in Tirupati. In their speeches, both Naidu and Pawan Kalyan strongly criticized the current administration, with Pawan Kalyan accusing TTD Chairman Bhumana Karunakar Reddy of amassing wealth and urging voters to donate any electoral cash they receive to the ‘Srivari Hundi.’ Naidu emphasized the importance of keeping ‘thieves’ away from the temple city to protect its sanctity. The roadshow showcased a strong alliance between the TDP and JSP and highlighted the growing public discontent with the incumbent government.
