Amaravathi (Andhra Pradesh): Andhra Pradesh's newly sworn-in Chief Minister Chandrababu Naidu has made it clear that he will have to take some decisions soon to bring all the systems back onto track alleging that all the departments in the State have become "defunct".
Naidu thanked the India Service officers who extended greetings to him after he assumed charge at the State Secretariat. Naidu on Thursday told the IAS and IPS officers, "Perhaps some officers who had worked with me when I became the Chief Minister in 1995 for the first time must be here now. I assumed charge for the fourth time as the Chief Minister and I have never experienced such a worse situation in the State as I am witnessing now. IAS, IPS and IFS are highly respectable positions as the officers are appointed without any connection to a particular State."
Recalling that some officers present there had functioned exemplarily, Chandrababu Naidu asked them to re-examine themselves how they discharged their duties in the past five years. Chief Minister said that he never thought that such great injustice is possible in the administration as a result of which all the systems have completely faded and alleged that people have developed huge frustration with the administration and all this because of the atrocities in the rule.
