On September 9, 2023, Chandrababu Naidu, the prominent Andhra Pradesh leader, was arrested and jailed in connection with a skill scam case filed by the CID. As the anniversary of this controversial arrest approaches, Naidu has shared his perspective, characterizing the arrest as a baseless attack on his commitment to public service. Despite the legal and political turmoil, Naidu maintains that his dedication to serving the people of Andhra Pradesh remains unshaken.

In his recent statement, Naidu reflected on the year since his arrest, noting that his commitment to the state’s development has not wavered. He contrasted his current position with that of a year ago, asserting that his efforts on behalf of the people have continued unabated. He portrayed the arrest as an act of irrationality, while also expressing gratitude to the Telugu community across 80 countries for their support during this tumultuous period.

Naidu’s remarks were not aimed at seeking sympathy but rather at reinforcing his steadfastness and dedication to his political and social responsibilities. He portrayed himself as a resilient leader who remains focused on serving the people of Andhra Pradesh despite the personal and political challenges he has faced.
