The police took into custody ten Telugu Desam legislators when they tried to enter the Chief Minister’s camp office without permission on Sunday to demand revamp of AP Public Service Commission.
Chief Minister N. Kiran Kumar Reddy had already enquired by then about the progress of investigation into the charge of corruption against one of the APPSC members. He asked the police to speed up the probe and submit a report, sources said.
Led by E. Dayakar Rao and Motkupalli Narasimhulu, the legislators went from the Assembly to the camp office to press their demand but the police did not permit them inside.
