State bandh called by TDP, JSP and other parties evokes partial response in Guntur, Palnadu and Bapatla districts in Andhra Pradesh

The bandh called by the Telugu Desam Party (TDP), Jana Sena Party and other opposition parties in the State evoked partial response from people in Guntur, Palnadu and Bapatla districts on Monday (September 11). The opposition parties have given the bandh call against the arrest and remand of TDP national president N. Chandrababu Naidu relating to his alleged involvement in the ‘skill development scam’ in the State between 2014 and 19, when he was the Chief Minister of Andhra Pradesh.
