The Anganwadi workers who have been in an agitation mode across Andhra Pradesh expressed shock and anger over the statement reportedly made by Education Minister Botcha Satyanarayana that Chief Minister Y.S. Jagan Mohan Reddy was not aware of their strike.
As a part of the State-wide call for a sit-in protest at the residences of legislators, the Anganwadi workers squatted in front of the houses of Raptadu MLA Thopudurthi Prakash Reddy, his Anantapur Urban counterpart Anantha Venkatarami Reddy and others on December 27 (Wednesday).
