Congress workers brutally attacked the BRS workers at Allapadu of Bonakal mandal while they were taking a victory rally, on the pretext of vermilion powder being spilled on Congress workers.

The police altered complaint dates and registered an attempt-to-murder case against BRS workers under pressure from Congress leaders, the BRS leaders alleged.

Wyra MLA Ramdas Naik lured voters with promises of Indiramma houses even as the election code was in effect and when the newly elected sarpanch of Thigalabanjara respectfully met him, the MLA forcibly draped the Congress scarf around his neck, the leaders complained.

After the gram panchayat elections, in Jinkalagudem of Raghunadhapalem mandal in Khammam constituency, Congress workers targeted and attacked BRS workers.
