Several BRS leaders and members of voluntary organisations were placed under house arrest or taken into preventive custody in Suryapet ahead of Chief Minister A Revanth Reddy’s visit to Nagarjunasagar. BRS members protested the arrests and raised slogans against the government.
BRS leaders, including KTR and Harish Rao, were initially placed under house arrest but later allowed to board city buses to stage the ‘Chalo Bus Bhavan’ protest against the RTC fare hike. Police detained some leaders en route, delaying their movement.
