Court Drops Liquor Case Against AP CM Naidu
A court in Andhra Pradesh has dropped a case against the state's Chief Minister, N. Chandrababu Naidu.
The case was about alleged wrongdoings related to liquor licenses and policies.
The investigation by the Criminal Investigation Department (CID) found no evidence against Naidu, so the court closed the case.
This decision has been celebrated by Naidu's supporters, but the opposition still claims there were problems with the policies.
The case had been a big point of argument between Naidu and the previous government led by Y.S. Jagan Mohan Reddy.
With the case closed, Naidu no longer faces legal trouble from this issue.
Court formally closed the liquor case against Andhra Pradesh CM N. Chandrababu Naidu on December 1, 2025.
The case involved allegations of irregularities and corruption in liquor licences and excise policy.
CID concluded its investigation with no conclusive evidence against Naidu, leading to the case's dismissal.
The case was a significant political point of contention between Naidu and the previous YSRC government.
Opposition leaders continue to allege policy irregularities from both regimes despite the case's closure.
