Balineni presses for withdrawal of gunmen indicating all is not well in Prakasam YSRCP

Trouble seems to be brewing for the ruling YSR Congress Party with its senior leader, Balineni Srinivasa Reddy, writing to the State Director General of Police, seeking the withdrawal of gunmen provided to him.

Mr. Srinivasa Reddy is reportedly upset with how the police investigated the case of fake title deed documents and land grabbing in the city, according to sources close to the former Energy Minister. While the police allowed some Telugu Desam Party leaders who were also allegedly behind such scams to go scot-free, his followers were put into trouble.

The development is seen as a setback for the ruling party in Prakasam district ahead of the Lok Sabha and Assembly elections.
