Atchan Naidu, P. Raghunath Reddy, D. Uma Maheswara Rao, Ravela Kishore Babu and MLA Dhulipala Narendra with speaking bad about the Governor and Mr. Rao in broadcast media and also public. Mr. Bhargav referred to Mr. Naidu’s remark that the latter also had his own ACB and police in Hyderabad to meet any eventuality. “Telangana is not your property and I am not alone here. All four crore Andhra people are with me”. Mr. Naidu had conspired and deployed over 500 policemen from Andhra Pradesh in Telangana for his personal protection to incite violence.
