The Hindu
He alleges that 30 persons died in the incident
Former Minister and Telugu Desam Party(TDP) senior leader Ch. Ayyann a Patrudu has alleged that 30 persons have died due to lack of oxygen in Tirupati but the State government is trying to pass it off as only 11 deaths. In a video message here on Thursday, Mr. Ayyanna Patrudu alleged that a local girl, who was witness to the incident, was arrested by the police, as she had claimed that over 30 persons died in the incident. The fact-finding teams of various political parties, which went to the hospital, were turned away. Demanding an inquiry by a sitting judge of the High Court, the TDP leader alleged that anyone questioning the government actions were being labelled as ‘raja drohis’ and cases were booked against them by the police.More Related News
