The police on Tuesday arrested Telugu Desam Party president Nara Chandrababu Naidu and other activists for staging dharna on the issue of reimbursement of fees at LB Nagar crossroads.
Addressing the dharna, Chandrababu Naidu said that the poor students were being distanced away from higher education in view of the confusion and chaos created by the Congress Government on the issue of reimbursement of fees. He alleged that the government lacked commitment over the implementation of reimbursement of fee to all the BCs, minorities and EBCs.
Naidu demanded that the Fee Reimbursement scheme be made applicable to all poor, who could not afford higher education. He said that the TDP would continue its fight till the government agrees to pay entire fee for all the students.
After the arrest, Naidu and other leaders were shifted to Vanasthalipuram Police Station.
