Naidu further accused the opposition of trying to defame the Prime Minister Narendra Modi-led NDA Government.
"She is ready, she wants to answer their questions but we cannot do anything if they are not ready. We have not done anything wrong. Our Prime Minister will never allow such a thing. They are trying to defame the government. All they want to do is mud-slinging," Naidu told the media here.
