The clashes that have taken place at Tadipatri have become the talk of the town among political circles, with a lot of chaos ensuing. The Police have no registered atrocity cases against Kethireddy Peddareddy, and attempted murder cases against his sons Harshavardhan and Sai Pratap, and cases have also been registered against 15 other people.
Cases have been filed against Peddareddy and his sons after JC’s lawyer Srinivas lodged a complaint against him and his followers. Cases have been filed against JC and his followers too, as JC was the reason for these riots to take place in the first place. A total of 6 cases have been lodged against both these sides.
Interestingly though, there’s a twist to the case that has been filed against MLA Peddareddy. Lawyer Srinivas said that he had only given a petition and a pen drive consisting of the CCTV footage and that he did not want to register a complaint. He asked the police to not treat this as a complaint. Srinivas has even released a press note of the same, but Peddareddy’s followers have criticised the drama being created by JC and his followers.
Peddareddy has said that he had gone to JC’s house with a good and peaceful intention of discussing affairs related to Tadipatri and that JC did not go there with malicious intent. Peddareddy said this at a press conference, after his tour of Paddavaduguru zone, Dimmagudi, Chinnavaduguru and Paddavaduguru villages on Saturday.
Furthermore, Peddareddy has said that the JC brothers are spreading false propaganda about Peddareddy’s family in Tadipatri and that there’s no truth to it. He said that the JC brothers are intentionally doing this to cause riots in the area. He also said that the TDP members are doing all such deeds just to get a political edge, considering how they are suffering right now, without proper political backup.
Former Minister Kalva Srinivasulu said that it is comical to see the TDP members talk about democracy today, after being the reason why the riots broke out in Tadipatri in the first place. He also said that any YSRCP member is free to file a case against the culprits, in case they get hurt.
Peddareddy suggested the TDP members to not spread false rumours about the YSRCP members attacking the houses of TDP members, and said that they are ashamed to demand the police to register cases against the TDP members responsible for all the riots. He also said that the Police department is watching everyone and that it is very much aware of who’s at fault, and who’s not.
