Congress leaders arrested across Telangana; Revanth house arrested
The ‘Vidyarthi Nirudyoga Jung Siren’ of the Congress to ‘expose’ the unfulfilled promises made to the youth by the TRS government saw arrests of Congress leaders across the city, including TPCC president Revanth Reddy, who was not allowed to move out of his house with the police laying siege.
Hundreds of policemen blocked the route leading to his residence ensuring he wouldn’t get out. Mr. Reddy, along with TPCC Political Affairs Committee convenor Mohammed Ali Shabbir and other leaders and hundreds of workers, staged a sit-in at his residence for quite a long time.
Mr. Reddy had a heated argument with the police asking them to show any order on his illegal house arrest.
