Vijayawada: Condemning the unparliamentary language and allegations made against the TDP supremo N Chanrdrababu Naidu and TDP national general secretary Nara Lokesh and his Yuva Galam padayatra by the YSRCP leaders, TDP politburo member and former minister Kollu Ravindra said that YSRCP MLA and leaders are making these derogatory remarks only due to fear of debacle in the ensuing elections.
