Be Careful: Chandrababu Warns Nayee Brahmins 

Amaravati: Members of the Nayee Brahmin community faced Andhra Pradesh Chief Minister Chandrababu Naidu's wrath when they pleaded with him to recognise them as contract employees and ensure minimum wages to them, here today.

Next time you do this, you will not be allowed into temples...no arguments...we will pay minimum wages; which village are you from? And you? I was the chief minister for nine years, do you know that?" Chandrababu reprimanded the agitating Nayee Brahmins continued in this vein, saying all this and more.
