It is Buddhism that encouraged people to transform the prevailing ideas and ideals into a definite and concretized shape, especially the form of art and architecture, philosophy and literature.
Historical role of Buddhism in Andhra was to incline local people given to animistic beliefs into an organized religion and launch them on the road of civilization.
This difference between the Vedic tradition and Samana tradition gave people a easy alternative of depending on favors from some mythological gods to satisfy their greed and hatred rather than working themselves strenuously against greed, hatred and delusion which is unique to Buddha's teachings.

CHENNAI - The abortive assassination attempt on Chandrababu Naidu, the chief minister of the southern Indian state of Andhra Pradesh, by the left-extremist People's War (PW), signals that the PW is not a spent force - it is able and willing to strike targets of its choice.
Claiming responsibility for the attack on Naidu, the PW in a statement said that he and the state police were "enemies of the people" because of their "anti-people policies" and "deserved to be eliminated".
The PW draws inspiration from Mao's people's war and aims at capturing political power through a protracted armed struggle based on guerrilla warfare.
