BRS Siddipet MLA Harish Rao’s official residence (MLA Camp Office) was attacked by unknown persons on Friday midnight, allegedly by Congress activists. They broke the locks and destroyed many things. They tore the flexi at the camp office. Those who came to attack shouted slogans like `Jai Congress’, `Jai Jai Congr’.
They demanded the resignation of Harish Rao as the Congress government implemented a loan waiver by August 15. In the middle of the night, there was an atmosphere of high tension near Harish’s office as BRS workers came to stop those who came in this order.
The police immediately rushed to the scene and sent the Congress workers out, but they kept quiet when they were attacking the office. Tension escalated in Siddipet town as the intruders broke the lights and furniture in the camp office and Harish Rao described the attack as an “alarming display of lawlessness”.
The suspected Congress workers broke the locks and vandalised the property, raising concern over the ineffectiveness of the police department.
MLA Harish Rao reacted to this incident. He alleged that the Congress goons attacked the camp office. A video has been posted saying that seeing the attack in the middle of the night is causing serious concern. If an MLA’s residence is attacked like this… how can the government ensure the security of common people?, he asked.
Harish Rao stated that it is unacceptable to destroy government properties in the presence of the police. “Congress goons attacked MLA’s official residence in the middle of the night and broke the locks and destroyed government property. It is atrocious that the police who were supposed to stop this attack are protecting the thugs”. He demanded that Telangana DGP should take immediate action on this incident.
BRS working president KT Rama Rao termed the attack as an act of “cowardice” and said Telangana was now witnessing acts of revenge and vendetta in the Congress rule. The State was away from such revenge politics for over a decade, but now the Congress government, with the help of police, was attempting to bring violence into politics, he charged.
