Surprising observers here, former Congress legislator and Tollywood actress Jayasudha joined the Telugu Desam Party on Saturday with high words of praise for Chandrababu Naidu.
Jayasudha, who lost the 2014 Assembly polls from Secunderabad on a Congress ticket, met Naidu at his riverside residence near Vijayawada to join the party.
“I was impressed by the extraordinary work the Chief Minister has been doing despite all odds in the bifurcated state,” Jayasudha said after joining the party.
State municipal affairs minister Narayana hoped that her entry into the TDP fold would strengthen its women’s wing.
Following her loss in the Assembly elections, Jayasudha has been staying away from party affairs.
