The Telugu Desam Party (TDP), known for its strong presence among the masses in Andhra Pradesh, has achieved an extraordinary milestone with its ongoing membership drive. In less than a month, TDP has successfully enrolled 50 lakh new members, a feat that showcases the party's deep-rooted influence in the region. With Andhra Pradesh’s population in 2022 at 5.33 crore, this means 10% of the state's population is now registered as TDP members.

This massive membership surge is a testament to the party's unwavering popularity, which has already been a dominant force in South Indian politics. The new membership drive, which has been implemented under the leadership of Nara Lokesh, is being hailed as a game-changer. By offering health insurance worth Rs 5 lakh for a mere Rs 100 membership fee, the party has attracted widespread attention and support from the masses.

TDP is not stopping at 50 lakh members. The party is targeting a larger goal: to enroll 1 crore members, setting it apart from other political forces not only in the South but also on the national stage. This remarkable feat highlights the party’s structural strength and its continued growth, as it continues to cement its place as one of India's most influential regional parties.
