The bandh called by Telugu Desam Party (TDP) condemning the judicial remand of party national president and former Chief Minister N. Chandrababu Naidu evoked lukewarm response in the State on September 11 (Monday).
The party leaders tried to enforce the bandh by stopping APSRTC buses, and closing shops and other establishments. But the police foiled their attempts, took them into custody and shifted them to the police stations.
The protesters organised ‘rasta roko’, burnt effigies and tyres at some places. They raised slogans against Chief Minister Y.S. Jagan Mohan Reddy and demanded the immediate release of Mr. Naidu.
