On the TV debate on Friday evening, Raju used the expression “vaeshyala raajadhani” while objecting to CM Chandrababu Naidu and TDP’s use of “devathala raajadhani” (capital of goddesses), in reference to Amaravati, the AP capital. When host Kommineni made a brief objection over such expressions in a TV debate, Raju defended his remarks, citing reports that said Andhra Pradesh has among the highest concentration of female sex workers in the country.
