TDP supremo N Chandrababu Naidu on Friday, 5 April, said that he will become the eldest son of every household in Andhra Pradesh and distribute welfare pensions directly at their doorstep. He said he would announce a monthly pension of ₹4,000 immediately after coming to power, vowing to implement it from April itself and pay the dues for three months.
