FIR lodged against TDP MLC Rajendra Prasad

Vijayawada, Oct 22, 2012:  YSR Congress leader Meruga Nagarjuna lodged an FIR against TDP MLC Rajendra Prasad at the Nujiveedu police station for making derogatory remarks against the sacred scripture Bible.

Police registered the case under sections 153 A and 504 after Nagarjuna complained that Rajendra Prasad’s comments have denigrated the sentiments of Christians. “It is not prudent on his part to make these comments,” Nagarjuna told newspersons later.

In another development, YSRCP Payakarao Peta MLA Golla Babu Rao slammed Rajendra Prasad for making unnecessary comments against Vijayamma carrying bible in her hands during the Padayatra.

“It is nothing but political insolvency on TDP leaders’ part to make such derogatory remarks,” he told journalists in Visakhapatnam, adding he always carries Lord Venkateswara’s Photo in his pockets. “But, does it mean that I do religious preaching?” he asked.
