Activists of the Telugu Desam Party (TDP) tried to obstruct the convoy in which the Crime Investigation Department (CID) personnel were shifting former Chief Minister and Leader of the Opposition N. Chandrababu Naidu to Vijayawada after arresting him in Nandyal district in the A.P. Skill Development case on September 9.
After medical examination in the early hours, Mr. Naidu was brought to Vijayawada via Narsaraopet and Guntur by evening.
Along the 325-km-long journey, the TDP activists, including women and youths, squatted on the National Highway, burnt effigies of Chief Minister Y.S. Jagan Mohan Reddy and raised slogans against him, and tried to stop the convoy.
