Telugu Desam Party celebrates grant of regular bail to Chandrababu Naidu in skill development scam case

Telugu Desam Party (TDP) leaders celebrated the grant of regular bail to former Chief Minister and party chief N. Chandrababu Naidu in the skill development scam case, by distributing sweets and bursting crackers at the State party office on Monday.

Former Ministers N. Chinarajappa and Nakka Anand Babu, MLC P. Ashok Babu and others hailed the court’s decision to grant regular bail to Mr. Naidu, saying that he was falsely implicated in the case. 

In a press release, TDP national general secretary Nara Lokesh said the grant of regular bail by the High Court to Mr. Naidu proved that truth would always triumph. He declared that his party was geared up to wage war against the vindictive regime of Chief Minister and YSRCP president Y.S. Jagan Mohan Reddy with greater vigour.

“Mr. Jagan Mohan Reddy’s attempts to manipulate institutions have failed. My father would neither commit a mistake nor allow others to do so. The government was not able to produce a single shred of evidence to the court during my father’s time in prison, which is evidence that he had done nothing wrong,” Mr. Lokesh said. 

TDP State president K. Atchannaidu said Mr. Jagan Mohan Reddy should at least now realise that such false cases would not pass judicial scrutiny and that Mr. Naidu would soon resume his campaign against Mr. Jagan Mohan Reddy’s dictatorial regime.
