Reddy had met the Governor on Sunday, demanding a Central government agency investigation into the atrocities committed by the ruling TDP-led government.

He claims that the TDP target YSRCP sympathizers, humiliating, beating, and killing them, citing the brutal murder of YSRCP activist Rashid in Vinukonda on July 17.

Reddy stated that in just one month, 36 people have been murdered, 300 murder attempts made, 35 suicides committed due to TDP harassment, 560 private properties destroyed, 490 government properties vandalized, and 2,700 families forced to flee their villages.
