He wore black dress to register his protest against the ‘‘undemocratic’ methods adopted by the police.

Mr. Nagarjuna alleged that the YSRCP Government indulged in “political vendetta” to show Mr. Naidu in a poor light by including his name in ‘so-called’ fund diversion of Skill Development Corporation.

As many leaders were under detention, the hunger strike was postponed in Vizianagaram, Cheepurupalli and other parts.
