Candidates demand ECI probe into opening of strongroom in presence of YSRCP leaders

The demand of the opposition parties for a probe into the alleged opening of the strongroom set up at the MRO’s office in Vizianagaram on May 16 in the presence of two YSRCP leaders, reportedly without intimating the other contestants, is growing louder.

Local MLA Kolagatla Veerabhadra Swamy’s son-in-law Eswar Kaushik and Mandal Praja Parishad (MPP) president Mamidi Appala Naidu were said to be present when the strongroom was opened.

Mr. Kaushik, however, claimed that he was present there with the prior consent of the officials.
