‘Biased’ Police to blame for arson at Congress office in Chandur: Jagga Reddy

Sangareddy MLA T. Jayaprakash Reddy blamed the Telangana Rashtra Samiti (TRS) and the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) for the burning of the Congress office in Chandur in Munugode constituency and said the police had become totally ‘spineless’ in the TRS and BJP rule in the country.

At a press conference here, he said police officials had become pawns in the hands of these two parties and the constable rank police were forced to ignore such events due to pressure from some officers who have dedicated themselves to the political parties than the government. “Police is used by all the governments but we have not seen this kind of submissiveness earlier,” he said asking the police to do their duty sincerely sometimes at least.

Stating that Palvai Sravanthi was chosen by the high command taking several aspects into consideration, he assured he would soon join the campaign in Munugode. Recalling late Palvai Goverdhan Reddy’s contribution to the party and the constituency, he recalled that the late leader worked with Jawaharlal Nehru and still commands respect among people.
