Andhra Pradesh Director General of Police (DGP) K.V. Rajendranath Reddy on Monday said that the youths, who have been named accused in the Amalapuram violence case, were reportedly misguided and instigated by some section of people and that the political parties did not initiate any measures to prevent the clashes.
Mr. Rajendranath Reddy on Monday took the stock of the ongoing probe into the clashes that broke out in Amalapuram over the proposal of renaming Konaseema district after Dr. B.R. Ambedkar on May 24.
