The BRS leaders alleged that the Congress was planning to attack the MLA camp office again. The BRS leaders said that they had planned the meeting with farmers three days ago. However, the Congress leaders planned to disturb the meeting by taking the rally via the camp office on the occasion of Rajiv Gandhi’s birth anniversary.

The police deployed huge numbers of police to control the situation. Congress leaders led by Mynampally Rohit Rao, Mynampally Hanumantha Rao, Pujala Harikrishna, and other leaders led the rally.

A huge number of farmers and BRS cadre participated in the BRS meeting at the MLA camp office. Former MLA M Padma Devender Reddy, MLC Deshapathi Srinivas, Errolla Srinivas, Vanteru Prathap Reddy, and others were present.
