Andhra Pradesh: The two transport officials had asked a cab driver to report to Ongole immediately since the vehicle was assigned to the Chief Minister's convoy, while the driver was taking a family to Tirumala.
Two transport department officials were suspended on Thursday after the Chief Minister YS Jagan Mohan Reddy ordered officials to take strict action against them for forcibly taking a cab and evicting a family who was in the vehicle.
One home guard, Tirupal Reddy and assistant motor vehicle Inspector, Sandhya, were suspended on Thursday after the Chief Minister's orders.
The two transport department officials on Wednesday night asked a cab driver to report to Ongole immediately since the vehicle was assigned to the Chief Minister's convoy, during his scheduled visit to Ongole on April 22, while the driver was taking a family to Tirumala.
The incident came to light when a local media reported that a family was stranded on their way to Tirumala since some officials forcibly took away their cab and driver.
