In a bid to neutralize Medak MP, Vijay Shanit’s arrest, the police on Saturday arrested Jayaprakash Reddy, a Congress MLA from Sangareddy for making provocative statements.
The arrest has been made at the behest of Election Commission for making provocative statements. However, the police were not clear on what charges they arrested the MLA.
Jayaprakash was arrested at his residence. The supporters of Jayaprakash resented the arrest and tried to disrupt the police.
Through these arrests the Government wants to send a clear message that all the parties are equal bfore the law be it Congress or Telugu Desam or TRS.
Making provocative statements and creating a feeling of regionalism has become the trumpcard of some political parties to met their selfish ends.
