Talking to newspersons at his jubilee hills residence here yesterday, he said, ''my dream is to develop the state like Singapore.''
Sounding confident about the TDP's victory in the forthcoming elections, he dismissed that there was any anti-incumbency wave in the state.
Dismissing the notion that the winning chances of the TDP could be ruined by a combined opposition, he said, ''two plus two is not always four.'' the voters were very clever to be fooled by politicians, he said referring to the proposed alliance between the Telangana Rashtra Samithi (TRS), the Congress and the Left parties.
''It is not always about numbers. Everything boils down to whether or not the parties carry the people's support,'' he said.
Naidu claimed that the public had responded positively to the development programmes initiated by his government, which was evident during the several praja sadassus (public conventions) and 'jhandha pandugas' (flag hoisting) meetings organised in various parts of the state.
