The incident occurred when Prakash, hailing from Vempally, arrived in Pulivendula to write an exam for a ration shop at a local school. BTech Ravi's followers accused him of misconduct and reportedly assaulted him before taking him into custody.
In response, MLC Ram Gopal Reddy's wife, Umadevi, staged a dharna demanding Prakash's release. Following police intervention, Prakash was eventually freed.
The unrest continued, with BTech Ravi's followers causing a commotion outside the Collectorate over sand tenders yesterday evening. Their agitation persisted, further escalating tensions in the region.
Local police are investigating the incidents, as internal rivalries within the TDP party in the area seem to be intensifying.
