During the inauguration of the CRDA office construction in Amaravati, Andhra Pradesh Chief Minister Nara Chandrababu Naidu reaffirmed his stance on avoiding the practice of touching feet. When a man attempted to bow and touch his feet, Chandrababu immediately responded by bending down himself and asked, “Do you want me to bow to your feet as well?” The unexpected response left the individual momentarily stunned.
Chandrababu Naidu has consistently emphasized that people should not touch his feet, stating that such gestures should be reserved for parents and teachers. He had previously cautioned that if anyone attempted to touch his feet, he would reciprocate the gesture in return, a principle he demonstrated during this incident.
