After a two-and-a-half-year hiatus, Andhra Pradesh chief minister Chandrababu Naidu returned to the assembly on Friday. His absence was due to an incident in which he felt insulted by comments made against his family members.Naidu had vowed in November 2021 that he would return only after becoming the Chief Minister, a feat he achieved after his party registered a landslide win in the Andhra Pradesh assembly elections. Upon entering the assembly, Naidu on Friday bowed and touched the ground at the entrance.

He fought back tears before walking out of the assembly with folded hands during a debate on women's empowerment.“I will not attend this assembly hereafter. I will return to the House only after becoming the chief minister," Mr Naidu had said, adding that the assembly had become a 'Kaurava Sabha', a referring to the hall where Draupadi was humiliated in the Mahabharata.
