SFI activists tried to storm the residence of Transport Minister Ponnam Prabhakar in Karimnagar, protesting the state government’s delay in releasing fee reimbursement funds. Police foiled the attempt, detained protesters, and SFI leaders demanded immediate release of pending student dues.
The governor, who was on his way to attend a function, stepped out from his car and rushed towards the protestors loudly chastising the activists. He also expressed his ire at policemen for not arresting the SFI workers who showed black flags and staged a protest against him.
