Rajamundry (Andhra Pradesh) [India], September 27 : Telugu Desam Party (TDP) chief Chandrababu Naidu’s wife Bhuvaneshwari participated in special prayers at St. Paul's Luthern church at Jampet, Rajamundry on Wednesday.
Bhuvaneswari is visiting the temples and churches in the district and offering special prayers for the release of former AP Chief Minister Chandrababu Naidu who continues to be in judicial custody.
People also gathered inside the Church with banners in their hands, condemning the arrest of Chandrababu Naidu.

Earlier, reacting to the arrest of Telugu Desam Party (TDP) chief Chandrababu Naidu in the multi-crore skill development scam case, his wife Nara Bhuvaneswari said that her husband has now been jailed for 17 days on false corruption charges.
As part of the ongoing protest, Nara Bhuvaneswari participated in a relay hunger strike organized by women in the Jaggampeta area of the Kakinada district on Monday.
Speaking on the occasion, Bhuvaneswari said, "It has been 17 days since the unethical arrest of TDP Chief and former Chief Minister Nara Chandrababu Naidu in false cases filed by the Yuvajana Sramika Rythu Congress Party (YSRC) government."
The wife of the TDP Chief further questioned whether Chandrababu Naidu's mistake was working hard for Andhra Pradesh and its people. She expressed strong hope that the former CM would come out of prison like a lion and continue to serve the people.
Naidu is currently in judicial custody at Rajamahendravaram Central Prison after his remand was extended till October 5 on Sunday by the Anti-Corruption Bureau court (ACB) in Vijayawada in the multi-crore skill development scam case.
The case involves alleged misappropriation in the establishment of clusters of Centres of Excellence (CoEs) in the state of Andhra Pradesh, with a total estimated project value of Rs 3,300 crore.
Agency officials claimed that the alleged fraud had caused a huge loss to the Andhra Pradesh State government in excess of Rs 300 crore.
The Supreme Court on Monday asked counsel of Naidu to mention his plea seeking to quash the FIR registered against him in the skill development scam case. A Supreme Court Bench headed by Justice Sanjiv Khanna is scheduled to hear the plea on September 27.
Naidu had approached the Supreme Court against the High Court order which declined to quash the FIR on Friday.
