Andhra Pradesh: The Andhra Pradesh High Court on Tuesday granted interim bail on health grounds to former Andhra Pradesh chief minister and TDP chief N Chandrababu Naidu for four weeks in connection with the skill development case, PTI reported.
The counsel representing Naidu informed the court that the former chief minister has to undergo cataract surgery. The court also posted his regular bail plea to November 10, according to the news agency.
Naidu was arrested on September 9 in connection with the alleged ₹3,300 crore Andhra Pradesh Skill Development Corporation (APSSDC) scam which reportedly took place during his stint as the Andhra chief minister.
On that day, the police arrived at Naidu’s home at around 3 am. They could not arrest him as his party workers gathered in large numbers and protested the move. He was taken into custody after around three hours.
