Chandrababu Naidu said after his arrest, ‘No power in the world can stop me’
Hours after his arrest in connection with the alleged multi-crore skill development scam, TDP chief N Chandrababu Naidu on Saturday said he was ready to sacrifice his life to protect the interests of the Telugu people and no power would stop him. Can’t.
In a post on Twitter (formerly Twitter), the former Andhra Pradesh CM said, “For the last 45 years, I have selflessly served the Telugu people. Ready to take it. There is no pressure.” May the earth stop me from serving the Telugu people, my #AndhraPradesh and my motherland.”
During his arrest he appealed to the people and party cadre to exercise restraint.
He said, “Ultimately, truth and righteousness will prevail. Whatever they do to me, I will continue for the people.”
Naidu was arrested in an early morning police operation, in which officers knocked down the door of the caravan in which he was sleeping.
The opposition leader was arrested by the CID around 6 am from a marriage hall (outside which his caravan was parked) at Gnanapuram in Nandyal town.
