Chief Minister N Chandrababu Naidu responded to NITI Aayog vice-chairman Rajiv Kumar’s observation that Andhra Pradesh might not require handholding support nor special category status (SCS) to overcome the problems caused by the bifurcation.

Chandrababu said the state would approach the Supreme Court if needed adding that they were not seeking any extra favour.
