Nara Lokesh (born 23 January 1983) is an Indian politician. He is the son of Telugu Desam Party (TDP) chief N. Chandrababu Naidu. He also served as Panchayat Raj, Rural development and IT and Communication minister through an MLC post.[3] He was severely criticized for not contesting the elections and becoming a minister in his father Chandrababu Naidu's cabinet.[4][5][6] However, after great criticism for not contesting any election, he finally chose to contest as an MLA for Mangalagiri Assembly Constituency and lost to YSR Congress Party candidate Alla Ramakrishna Reddy in 2019 Andhra Pradesh Legislative Assembly elections.[7][8]
Both he and his father, TDP chief, Chandrababu Naidu suffered a major political setback in the 2019 Andhra Pradesh Legislative Assembly Elections by winning only 23 seats out of the total 175 seats.[9] This was TDP's worst defeat ever in the history.[10][11]
