TDP supremo N Chandrababu Naidu will be sworn in as the Chief Minister of Andhra Pradesh for the third time on 12 June, party sources said on Friday, 7 June.

Naidu will take the oath of office at Kesarapalli IT Park near the Gannavaram airport.

“At 11:27 am on 12 June (Wednesday), Chandrababu Naidu will be sworn in as the Chief Minister at Kesarapalli IT Park near Gannavaram airport,” the sources told PTI.

Naidu first became the CM nearly 30 years ago in 1995 and went on to rule till 2004 to be replaced by the late YS Rajasekhar Reddy.

After a decade and the bifurcation of the united states into Telangana and residual Andhra Pradesh, Naidu emerged as the first CM of the newly carved out state in 2014.

However, he lost the elections in 2019 with the chief minister’s mantle taken over by YSRCP supremo YS Jagan Mohan Reddy. He will become the chief minister again after a gap of five years.
