Vijayamma calls her arrest undemocratic

Hyderabad, Nov 1, 2013: Taking serious exception on the police attitude in preventing her tour in Nalgonda district, Y S Vijayamma, honorary president of YSR Congress party, termed her arrest ‘undemocratic’.

Speaking to the press persons at the Nelekondapalli police station in Nalgonda district on Thursday, she dared the government to reason on what grounds she was prevented from meeting the public, who got affected by rain havoc.

“Is it wrong to interact with the public? Are we living in Democratic country?” she questioned. Chief Minister himself claims himself to be an integrationist, will police arrest him too if he visits in Telangana? If the government and chief minister is so capable why don’t they stop people who prevent me to visit the flood hit farmers and people, thunders Vijayamma.

Telangana people have shown abundant love and affection towards YS Jagan Mohan Reddy as they did towards YS Rajasekhara Reddy. It was proved in time and again in earlier elections too. Rajasekhara Reddy always aspired that the state should be intact for faster development and growth. Jagana Mohan Reddy too believes that the state should be kept united for the development of all the three regions, she averred.
