Even as tense moments continued till late in the evening on Sunday on whether the ACB Special Court here would grant bail to TDP national president and former Chief Minister N. Chandrababu Naidu, or send him to remand, the police deployed security forces in strength across Andhra Pradesh.
But with the court sending Mr. Naidu to 14-day remand, and he was likely to be shifted to Rajamahendravaram Central Jail, a high alert was sounded across the State.
Keeping the law the order issue in view, the authorities concerned imposed Section 144 of the Cr.P.C. across the State, and people were advised not to move in groups and carry any lethal weapons.
