Former CM YS Jagan has stated that he strongly condemns the illegal arrest and detention of YSRCP Legislative Council Member and Party General Secretary Lella Appireddy. He said that if the party candidates and the people protested peacefully, questioning the election irregularities, false cases were filed against them, and they were arrested and detained. Jagan tweeted on the social media platform X saying that this regime, which resembles an emergency, is the worst.
After the polling for the Parishad elections in Guntur Rural Mandal Vengalayapalem on Thursday, why were the ballot boxes that were to go directly to Nagarjuna University dropped at Nallapadu in the middle? Jagan asked. On whose orders were those ballot boxes brought down? What happened to the security of the original ballot boxes? He deposed that. If the ballot boxes to be sent to the strong room are found on the road, will they grab them red-handed and lathi-charge the workers, leaders and people of their party who are protesting peacefully? Did you make mistakes and try to change the ballot boxes together, and again illegal cases against us? Finally, cases of decoy and theft will be filed against an MLC? What is more evil than this? Jagan was furious.
“In this local election.. rigging of nominations, rigging of scrutiny of nominations, rigging of polling booths, rigging of polling, rigging of polling percentages, and finally rigging of ballot boxes after the end of the polling? Chandrababu, if you are murdering democracy like this in these local elections, if anyone questions these mistakes, will you arrest them and send them to jail? @ncbn as much as you want to use your authority and police force, you cannot hide your undemocratic methods. Former CM Jagan said in a tweet.
