The ongoing State Bandh called by the Communists in Andhra Pradesh is a success. The main Opposition Party, YSR Congress, and Janasena have supported the Bandh call. TDP did not announce support but called for its cadre to resort to demonstrations everywhere in support of the MPs who are fighting in the Parliament.

Chief Minister Chandrababu Naidu who is in Dubai for making some MOUs reportedly instructed the Police Department to allow the protests by any party but insisted that law and order should be maintained giving no scope to damage to Public Property or any violence.
Opposition Leader YS Jagan Mohan Reddy stopped his Praja Sankalpa Padayatra for today in support of the Bandh and participated in the protests as well in Nellore district. The government had canceled all the exams today and declared a holiday to the educational institutions.
On the other side, Chandrababu instructed the MPs to continue their protests in the Parliament. TDP may resort to the extent of pulling out of NDA if there is no concrete assurance from the central government by the end of the budget session.
