Case relates to submitted fake certificate
Telugu Desam Party MLC Parchuri Ashok Babu, who was arrested by the CID on Thursday night, was brought to the regional CID office here on Friday amid tight security.
Anticipating protests from TDP supporters, the Guntur police deployed additional forces along the Guntur Medical College road . Mr. Ashok Babu was questioned by the CID police in the case relating to cheating and submitting forged degree certificates while he was in government service.

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.
