: Andhra Pradesh Chief Minister N Chandrababu Naidu today directed his Cabinet colleagues, party legislators and cadre to observe a day's fast along with him on April 20 to protest the Centre's 'injustice' to the state.
The Chief Minister had last week announced that he would observe a day-long fast on his birthday.
Addressing the Telugu Desam Party coordination committee meeting here, Naidu said he would observe the fast in Vijayawada and asked 13 ministers to lead the protest in each district.
The remaining nine ministers would sit on fast along with the chief minister in Vijayawada.
"All MLAs and in-charges of 175 Assembly segments should organise mass hunger-strike in their respective constituencies in solidarity with my fast," the TDP chief said.
He also directed the party leaders to organise bicycle rallies in all constituencies from April 21 to highlight his government's 'victories.'
