"chintalkunta"

The two victims who are footpath dwellers were asleep on the pavement at Chintalkunta when due to heavy gales and rains the power cables snapped.

As per available information, the goons who were allegedly instigated by Koppula Veena Reddy, a Congress party leader and close aide of former minister Ramreddy Damodar Reddy.

This two-level planning could be necessitated in view of the relatively narrow stretch and presence of underground/overhead utilities on both sides of the road and a big religious structure on the right side in this stretch.
