Andhra Pradesh Chief Minister N Chandrababu Naidu Friday expressed apprehension that places of worship in Andhra Pradesh would be attacked in coming days as part of the BJP-led NDA government's conspiracy to "finish off" the state due to "personal vengeance" against him.
A day after he accused the Centre of trying to destabilise his government, he alleged that "goondas" either from Bihar or other states would be brought to Andhra Pradesh to create law and order problem.
CBI inquiry would be ordered and "we will not be allowed to move" in an attempt to prevent the Telugu Desam Party from retaining power in assembly polls, Naidu charged.
He also accused the Centre of seeking to turn Hindus against his government by "whipping up sentiments."
BJP termed the remarks "ludicrous" and said it exposed Naidu's "rabid paranoia."
Addressing the conference of district collectors here Friday, he said temples, churches and mosques in the state would be attacked in the coming days as part of the BJP-led NDA governments "conspiracy to finish off" Andhra Pradesh because of "personal vengeance against me."
Reacting to the chief minister's remarks, BJP MP G V L Narasimha Rao said it exposed Naidu's "rabid paranoia."
