BRS leaders put under house arrest ahead of CM Revanth Reddy’s Kamareddy visit
Ahead of Chief Minister A Revanth Reddy’s visit to flood-affected Kamareddy, several BRS leaders including Gampa Goverdhan and Jajula Surender were placed under house arrest. Police action came amid BRS criticism over the CM’s delayed ground visit after last week’s aerial survey.
KAMAREDDY: Ahead of Chief Minister A Revanth Reddy’s visit to the flood-affected areas in the district today afternoon, many Bharat Rashtra Samtihi (BRS) are being house arrested by the police.
BRS leaders, including Gampa Goverdhan and former ML Jajula Surender have been placed under house arrest in Hyderabad. Many mandal level leaders are also confined to their homes.
Sensing trouble ahead of the Chief Minister’s visit, the police were placing the BRS leaders under house arrest. Stating that it has been over a week since the flooding of Kamareddy district, the BRS leaders questioned the Chief Minister’s visit at this juncture.
The Chief Minister along with new cabinet colleagues, including Irrigation Minister N Uttam Kumar Reddy and others, had conducted an aerial survey of different areas in Kamareddy last week. However, due to rains, he could not visit the flood affected areas.
