TDP MPs protest on Parliament precincts against Naidu's arrest

Vijayawada On the opening day of the special session of Parliament on Monday, MPs representing the Telugu Desam Party (TDP) staged a protest demonstration near the Gandhi statue on the precincts against the arrest of their party supremo and former Chief Minister N. Chandrababu Naidu.

TDP national general secretary Nara Lokesh and some former MPs too participated in the protest. Carrying placards containing demands like 'Save Democracy, Release Chandrababu Unconditionally and Remove False Cases,' they raised slogans like "Save Andhra Pradesh, Save Democracy and We Want Justice."

The MPs demanded that the illegal cases registered against Chandrababu Naidu be lifted immediately and save democracy in the State. K. Rammohan Naidu, the TDP MP from Srikakulam, said that democracy is murdered in Andhra Pradesh and Chandrababu Naidu is illegally arrested by misusing power by the CID on the direction of Chief Minister Y.S. Jagan Mohan Reddy.
