CBN's strong and stunning warning to cops. It is known that former CM, TDP chief Chandra Babu Naidu has been going on an irrigation projects tour and is trying to expose the inaction of the ruling YSRCP government and CM Jagan over the delay in the completion of the projects.
But this resulted in large-scale violence when he visited Punganuru. YSRCP protested Chandra Babu's result and this resulted in violence and arson. Following this AP DGP K. V. Rajendranath Reddy said they have arrested 40 people responsible for the arson. He said "The police have taken swift action and have identified all those involved in the violence",
DIG Anantapur R.N. Ammi Reddy" Around 400 personnel were deployed on bandobast duty. The situation was peaceful till all of a sudden TDP cadre diverted the route towards Punganur town instead of taking the by-pass route. When police prevented them, they got into an argument and pelted stones and beer bottles,"
The police association condemned the violence and accused Chandra Babu Naidu of instigating the TDP cadre. This resulted in war of words between Chandra Babu and the AP Ministers. In the midst of all this, Chandra Babu during his meeting with TDP cadre and leaders issued a strong warning to cops. He said “Khabaddar! We will file private cases in the courts against the police. We won’t spare police who file false cases against the TDP cadre,”
TDP says cops are targeting TDP cadre and more than 100 are missing and added that cops are saving the YSRCP goons and attacking the innocent TDP cadre.
