SC seeks Naidu’s response to AP govt’s plea on bail

New Delhi: The Supreme Court on Tuesday sought a response from TDP chief N Chandrababu Naidu on a plea by the Andhra Pradesh government against a high court order granting regular bail to him in the skill development corporation scam case.

A bench of justices Bela M Trivedi and SC Sharma issued notice to Naidu and sought his reply. The top court also relaxed his bail condition and allowed him to participate in public rallies and meetings till December 8, which is the next date of hearing.

It, however, said that other bail conditions, including that the TDP leader will not make public statements or speak to the media about the case, will remain in force.
