Hyderabad: Telangana TDP leaders sought compensation of Rs. 1 crore each to the families of the policemen killed in recent encounters at Suryapet and Arvapally. TDP leaders E. Dayakar Rao, M. Narasimhulu and L. Ramana were speaking to the media after visiting the injured police officers undergoing treatment in Kamineni Hospital on Monday.

While Circle Inspector Balagangi Reddy is recovering from the injuries sustained during the encounter at Arvapalli on Saturday, the condition of Sub-Inspector Siddaiah is stated to be still serious. Apart from seeking an ex-gratia of Rs. 1 crore for the families of the deceased police personnel, the TDP leaders appealed to the government to provide three acres of land besides employment to a family member of the policemen killed in the incidents.

They also blamed police intelligence for failing to act immediately after the Suryapet incident on April 2 in nabbing the two terrorists who were later gunned down in an encounter in Arvapally. They also lamented over poor quality of weapons being supplied to police personnel.

TDP leaders also criticised Home Minister Naini Narasimha Reddy for his “hasty comment” that the two miscreants killed in the encounter in Arvapally were members of an inter-state dacoity gang from UP. The Home Minister should be more responsible while making any statements in such serious incidents, they observed.
