SDC Scam: Vijayawada ACB Court Extends N Chandrababu Naidu’s Remand Till Oct 19

Vijayawada ACB court on Thursday extended Telugu Desam Party Chief N Chandrababu Naidu’s remand in the alleged multi-crore skill development scam case till October 19.

People also gathered inside the church with banners in their hands, condemning the arrest of Naidu.
