Telugu Desam Party (TDP) Polit Bureau member Varla Ramaiah has appealed for round-the -clock armed security at his party’s central office at Mangalagiri in Amaravati.
In a letter to Director General of Police Rajendranath Reddy on Wednesday, Mr. Ramaiah stressed the need to enhance security at the TDP office, where party national president N. Chandrababu Naidu, who had Z+ category security, participated in different programmes on a daily basis, and faced a constant threat from the “anti-social elements.”
Mr. Ramaiah reminded the DGP of the attack on the party office on October 19 last when “miscreants from the ruling party” had attacked and vandalised the TDP central office. “They damaged the furniture and assaulted the staff, and some of them had received injuries,” he said. In the past, the party office had a 24-hour armed security, but it was withdrawn without any prior notice, he added.
