On the 9th of September, Mr. Nara Lokesh, the General Secretary of the Telugu Desam Party (TDP,) was denied a visit to Narasaraopet, Andhra Pradesh.
The Andhra Pradesh Police tightened security at Gannavaram Airport amid Nara Lokesh’s visit. Due to this, tension prevailed at the airport, ahead of the TDP leader’s arrival from Hyderabad.
It is to be noted, the TDP Working President Mr. Nara Lokesh was scheduled to visit Narasaraopet Police Station and meet the family members of Ms. Anusha.
On the 24th of February 2021, a girl named Anusha was brutally murdered by her classmate. She was strangled to death and her body was then dumped in a nearby canal. Later, the accused, identified as Vishnuvardhan Reddy, surrendered himself to the police.
Although the matter is months old, it created a political spark with the blame game. The TDP alleged the ruling Yuvajana Sramika Rythu Congress Party of not making proper laws and assuring safety of women in the State.
To avoid chaos and tension in Narasaraopet, the Narasaraopet Police refused Mr. Nara Lokesh’s request to visit the family of the victim. Acting upon the denial, the TDP leaders created a ruckus.
To control the situation, the Police had to place a few TDP leaders under house arrest and beef up security in Narasaraopet, check posts from Vijayawada to the Gannavaram Airport.
Leaders like Mr. A. Raja, Mr. Sattenapalli, Narasaraopet constituency in-charges Mr. Chadalawada Aravinda Babu, Mr. Kodela Sivaram, Gannavaram constituency in-charge Mr. Bachula Arjun and others were placed under house arrest.
