Chandrababu Naidu, former Andhra CM recently broke down after enduring abusive remarks made on his wife and took a vow to re-enter Assembly when he comes back to power. “I have been bearing the insults for the sake of people but remained calm. Today, they have targeted even my wife. I always lived with honour and for honour. I can take it no more,” the Andhra Pradesh leader of opposition said, alleging the current YS Jagan Mohan Reddy government casting slurs on him

Background
The Indian parliament and the state legislative assemblies across India have witnessed some hair-raising speeches, glorious discussions, and at times, some dramatic incidents. The houses host political leaders from multiple parties as they discuss upcoming laws, budgetary reforms, and ask questions pertaining to state and national welfare. The houses also witness some dramatic moments filled with emotions.
Earlier this year, Indian Vice President and Rajya Sabha chairman Venkaiah Naidu had an emotional outburst where he gave a tearful speech. The political leader labelled the ruckus created by the opposition as sacrilege.
Meanwhile, former Andhra Pradesh CM too had an emotional outburst after allegedly receiving slurs from opposition.

The Facts of the Matter
A sobbing elderly man is not a pretty sight. A sobbing elderly political leader who was once responsible for the welfare of his state is deplorable. Former Andhra Pradesh CM N. Chandrababu Naidu on Friday took a tearful vow in which he said that he will only step into the Andhra legislative assembly when he returns into power.
Chandrababu’s Mike Cut Off
The political veteran, who was known for not let his emotions get better of him, alleged that the current Jagan Mohan Reddy party has been throwing slurs at him since the better past of two years. As he continued to give his speech in the assembly, his mike was cut off. Further, the members of the ruling party called Chandrababu’s outburst a ‘drama’.
