It is a known news that Kapu leader Mudragada Padmanabham initiated a 26-day Padayatra to AP's capital Amaravathi seeking the implementation of Kapu reservations, which was one of crucial promises inducted by TDP into its election manifesto prior to 2014's elections.
However, the TDP government has taken stringent actions from all quarters to suppress the movement. A total of 7000 police personnel were deployed and Mudragada was house-arrested.
Not that all, TDP has directed its pro media such as a nine numbered channel, a CBN Chandrajyothi channel, a five rated channel, a N rated channel and 10 more channels not give coverage to Mudragada's agitation. In fact, the the pro TDP media desperately waited to get that order from the government. As a result. they telecasted minute to minute useless interrogation reports on Tollywood celebs on drugs issue and ignored to give the coverage. on Mudragada's agitation and his house arrest. Also, the media broadcasted useless defence of TDP ministers like Ganta and Nimmakayala on Kapus issues.
But then, YCP's Sakshi media has given a good coverage on the agitation and won the hearts of Kapu agitators.
