TPN , Hyderabad: The Nampally court has granted bail to senior Bharat Rashtra Samithi (BRS) leader and former chairman of the SC and ST Commission, Errolla Srinivas. The court issued conditional bail after hearing arguments from both sides, requiring Srinivas to provide a surety of Rs. 5,000 and two additional sureties. Srinivas was also directed to cooperate fully with the ongoing investigation.
Srinivas was produced before the court on Thursday afternoon following his arrest earlier in the day. The police had registered a case against him for allegedly obstructing officers in the performance of their duties. Despite being summoned for questioning three times, Srinivas reportedly failed to appear, leading to his arrest. Before his court appearance, he underwent medical examinations at Osmania Hospital.
Prominent BRS leaders, including Harish Rao, KP Vivekananda, Bandari Lakshma Reddy, Errabelli Dayakar Rao, Kranthi, and Alla Venkateswar Reddy, visited Srinivas at the Masabtank police station before his court hearing. Meanwhile, BRS student leaders attempted to block the police vehicle transporting Srinivas to court, showing their solidarity with the leader.
Speaking to the media after being granted bail, Srinivas said, “Righteousness has triumphed over the government’s illegal cases against me. Unrighteousness has been defeated. I will fully adhere to the court's orders. I extend my heartfelt gratitude to KTR, Harish Rao, and all the leaders of the Gulabi party who stood by me. Special thanks to the BRS legal team for meticulously examining the case and ensuring my release on bail.”
This development marks a significant moment for the BRS leader, who continues to enjoy strong support within his party. The case and its proceedings remain under close scrutiny by both party members and the public.
