Nalgonda SP A.V. Ranganath on Sunday directed Additional SP Satish Chodagiri to inquire into the allegations of a Dalit youth’s torture by Town-II police.
Refuting messages being circulated on social media, including old videos of the torture, he assured that strict action would be initiated against the accused police officers if they were found guilty.
Mr. Ranganath’s statement also cleared that Royya Srinivas, the victim in the alleged torture, was booked by Town-II police for a cheating case based on a complaint filed on July 6.

The Centre has rejected reports that the definition of the Aravalli hills was changed to permit large-scale mining, citing a Supreme Court-ordered freeze on new leases. It said a court-approved framework will bring over 90% of the Aravalli region under protected areas and strengthen safeguards against illegal mining. The clarification follows controversy over the “100-metre” criterion used to define hills across states.
