Nara Chandrababu Naidu, who led the Telugu Desam Party-Bharatiya Janata Party-Janasena alliance to a massive win in the Andhra Pradesh assembly elections, will be sworn in as the chief minister of the southern state on Wednesday, June 12.

Naidu,74, met Andhra Pradesh governor S Abdul Nazeer at the Raj Bhavan in Vijaywada on Tuesday and formally staked claim to form the government. He was accompanied by his party allies, Janasena Party chief Pawan Kalyan and BJP state president Daggubati Purandeswari.

“All MLAs of the BJP, Janasena, and TDP have given their consent for me to become Andhra Pradesh's upcoming Chief Minister of the NDA government,” Naidu had said after the meeting of NDA legislators.

In 2014, Naidu became the first chief minister of bifurcated Andhra Pradesh and served it until 2019. He lost the 2019 polls to remain an opposition leader until 2024.
