IN PICS: TDP Chief Chandrababu Naidu Burns Copies Of Govt Order Banning Public Meetings On Roads

Telugu Desam Party (TDP) president and former Andhra Pradesh chief minister N. Chandrababu Naidu visited Naravaripalle in Chittoor district on Saturday

As Saturday marked the begining of Pongal, Naidu took part in the Bhogi bonfire festivities (which mark the first day of Pongal in Andhra Pradesh)

Chandrababu Naidu and other TDP leaders then burnt copies of controversial Government Order (GO) in Bhogi fire

The GO on January 2 banned public meetings on roads and road sides citing public safety

The order came after the death of eight people in the wake of a stampede during a roadshow by Chandrababu Naidu on December 2
