Members of the Andhra Pradesh Police Officers’ Association have condemned the attack on police stations and policemen at Tuni in East Godavari district and Nellore.

Association leader D. Subramanyam said every person had the right to take out a procession or express his or her dissent. But protests should be staged without causing any inconvenience to the people and the participants should be patient.

Those leading the rallies, meetings, and processions should not give provocative statements and incite violence, he said.

The duty of policemen was to give protection to the common man, protect public and private properties, and maintain law and order, the association leaders said in a press release on Tuesday.
