In a prestigious feast held by Andhra Pradesh Chief Minister N Chandrababu Naidu to selected few judges, the cost to the state exchequer resulted in over Rs 18 lakhs.

According to the figures given by an RTI activist in a media report, the feast in question was held in February this year for 19 judges who attended for meeting on IPR act and that the AP government spent Rs 18 lakhs on it.

While hosting a formal dinner to diplomats is a part of the government's endeavours, but this particular feast which has nothing to do with the state or the Chief Minister has brought in criticism for Chandrababu among the political circles.
