YSRCP condemns attacks on dalits and minorities violating human rights 

Tadepalli, May 27: YSRCP strongly condemned the escalating attacks and human rights violations against dalits and minorities, enabling a culture of oppression and lawlessness across Andhra Pradesh. Addressing the media at the central office in Tadepalli,  YSRCP State General Secretary Jupudi Prabhakar highlighted a series of brutal incidents that expose the state’s failure to protect its most vulnerable citizens.
 “The police, entrusted with upholding the law, are attacking the constitutional rights to free speech and life itself,” Prabhakar demanded the immediate suspension and prosecution of officers involved in these atrocities.
In Tenali, police subjected dalit and minority youth to brutal third-degree treatment, using casteist slurs and ignoring pleas for mercy. In Rajamahendravaram, dalit youth Puli Sagar was beaten, stripped, and humiliated in a lock-up for social media posts. 
In Kantheru, Guntur, Dalit MPTC member Kalpana was arrested at midnight without dignity, and in Hyderabad, Paleti Krishnaveni faced similar persecution for online dissent. Pithapuram reports social boycotts of Dalit families, while in Kuppam, Chief Minister Chandrababu Naidu’s constituency, Dalits have been killed. “The police, meant to uphold the law, are trampling on constitutional rights to free speech and life,” Prabhakar stated.
Contrasting this with YS Jagan Mohan Reddy’s welfare-driven governance—marked by 32 lakh house sites, English-medium CBSE education, 17 medical colleges, and the Family Doctor initiative—the coalition government has amassed Rs. 1.5 lakh crore in debt without delivering a single welfare scheme. Prabhakar criticized their “Red Book” agenda, admitted at Mahanadu, which targets YSRCP leaders with false cases to suppress dissent. “This government’s lawlessness is a betrayal of the people,” he said.
The YSRCP demands the immediate suspension and prosecution of the involved police officers under the 1989 SC/ST Act and an end to vendetta politics. “If justice is denied, we will file private cases,” Prabhakar warned, urging the coalition to govern responsibly or face consequences. “The people will not forgive this oppression,” he added.
