Telugu Desam Party chief Nara Chandrababu Naidu pointed a finger at Energy Minister Peddireddy Ramachandra Reddy for the Punganuru violence that happened this evening. It is well known that major violence broke out when Chandrababu Naidu was addressing people on the bypass road on the outskirts of Punganuru town. Police officials had to resort to lathi charges and use teargas to quell the mob.
Chandrababu Naidu alleged that Peddireddi Ramachandra Reddy was behind these attacks to dilute his Yuddha Bheri which was supposed to highlight the unfinished irrigation projects. CBN held Chittoor Superintendent of Police responsible for these attacks and demanded a thorough probe. “I have never seen an attack of this magnitude in my entire life,” said Naidu in shock.
In this regard, Chandrababu Naidu said that the people have begun to revolt against YSRCP and their downfall is imminent. Chandrababu Naidu assured the TDP workers who were injured in this attack. “Every assault on TDP workers will be considered an attack on me,” said Mr. Naidu.
