Normally, a foreign tour of a celebrity or a VIP is no big deal. Jagan goes on a tour of Jerusalem almost every year. He also tours the US to be with his daughter who is pursuing her academic career abroad. But why is Chandrababu’s vacation on a foreign land making so much news?
Sources in the know say that the utter secrecy in which the vacation was planned is raising hcles. Chandrababu has kept it such a secret that the people became aware of his tour only two days after he left India. He left for Thailand on December 24, a day before Christmas. Later, an innocuous looking statement was put out by the party head office saying that Chandrababu Naidu would not be available for ten days. It is now learnt that he would be back only after January 2.
Chandrababu Naidu is currently in Thailand on a vacation. His wife Bhuvaneswari, son Lokesh, daughter-in-law Brahmani too accompanied him. Sources say that such pall of secrecy over his vacation is naturally rousing suspicion in the political circles. Normally, Chandrababu’s vacations are never kept secret.
His detractors claim that he is busy fixing business deals in the garb of a vacation. They say that Thailand is quite close to Singapore and Malaysia, with which he always has a special affection. There are several allegations in the past that accused Chandrababu Naidu of entering into business deals with East Asian companies. Even in case of Amaravati construction too, there were similar allegations.
