Like Obama, I will make history in AP: Chiranjeevi



HYDERABAD: Actor-turned-politician Chiranjeevi has claimed that the vote for change that marked the outcome of the US presidential elections will be repeated in Andhra Pradesh assembly elections scheduled early next year.

Chiranjeevi, whose campaign is focussed on change and social justice, told gatherings during his roadshow in Khammam district that the people in the state were "disillusioned" with successive governments and were yearning for change and ushering in a new political culture.

"Like Americans, who created history by voting overwhelmingly in favour of change and social justice, our people will repeat the same message," the actor said on the concluding day of his second leg of mass contact programme covering Karimnagar, Warangal and Khammamcts in Telangana region.

Like Barack Obama who mesmerised Americans with his promise of change, the matinee idol of Telugu cinema has been emphasising that he will herald a change.

"I have no personal agenda. The people's agenda is my agenda. The people want change, a change that will lead to a positive political culture and improvement in their living standard", he said.
