Vijayawada: The TDP Party has called for a state-wide shutdown on Monday to protest the arrest of its supremo and former Chief Minister N. Chandrababu Naidu in the alleged skill development scam.
TDP state President K. Atchannaidu called for the shutdown after a court in Vijayawada sent Naidu to judicial custody for 14 days.
He said that the bandh call is to protest against the ‘illegal’ arrest of Chandrababu Naidu, brutal attacks on TDP cadres, and Chief Minister Jagan Mohan Reddy’s politics of vendetta.

Naidu was arrested by the CID in Nandyal on Saturday. He was produced before a court in Vijayawada on Sunday morning. In an order pronounced in the evening, the court sent him to judicial custody. TDP leader D. Narendra Kumar said that Sunday is a black day for democracy.
