Police took the leaders of Jai Bharat National Party, when they tried to organise ‘Chalo Chief Minister’s Camp Office’, demanding Special Category Status (SCS) to the State.

Special Category Status for Andhra Pradesh is not a closed chapter, says V.V. Lakshminarayana

Security forces prevented Jai Bharat National Party president V.V. Lakshminarayana, general secretary P. Rama Rao, leader Chalasani Srinivas and took them into custody on March 1.

The protestors demanded that the ruling YSR Congress Party Parliament Members raise the SCS issue with the Centre and render justice to the State.
