Naidu Decries ‘Midnight Arrest’ Of Ashok Babu
Vijayawada, Feb 11: Telugu Desam Party National President and former Chief Minister N. Chandrababu Naidu on Friday decried the ‘midnight arrest’ of party MLC Paruchuri Ashok Babu by the CID officers. He expressed strong reservations against the manner in which the YSRCP government in Andhra Pradesh was victimising the opposition party leaders. A false case was filed solely to arrest Ashok Babu in the name of anomalies in service matters, he said.
In a statement here, the TDP Chief asked where was the need for making the midnight arrest of Ashok Babu in such a case relating to service matters. Apparently, the YSRCP Government was taking revenge against the TDP MLC just because he raised his voice in support to the agitating employees, the former Chief Minister alleged. Mr Naidu warned that the YSRCP Government would have to pay a heavy penalty for each and every illegality that it was perpetrating on the opposition leaders and the general public. All sections of the people were condemning the tone and tenor of the ruling party administration in the state, he added.
