Hyderabad: Telangana Pradesh Congress Committee chief Revanth Reddy on Monday trained his guns against the State government over the arrests of NSUI students. TPPC chief addressing the media, said that NSUI students and their chief was arrested for questioning government over the permission denied for Rahul Gandhi's public meeting at Arts College in Osmania University. Revanth said that the arrested students are charged with non-bailable warrant. On the occasion, he informed that Congress along with NSUI student unions will hold dharnas across the State demanding the immediate release of arrested NSUI students.
On Sunday, Revanth Reddy claimed on Sunday that Chief Minister K Chandrashekar Rao was 'scared' of the visit of the party leader Rahul Gandhi to the State. He asked KCR as to why he was obstructing Gandhi's visit to the Osmania University. In a statement here, Reddy said the arrest of party MLA Jagga Reddy, who was going to the OU campus, was also a classic example to prove that KCR was scared of Rahul Gandhi. He wondered if they were living in a democracy or a feudal State? He said the lavish life enjoyed by KCR and his children was because of Sonia Gandhi and Rahul Gandhi. Reddy condemned the arrest of NSUI activists by the police and demanded their immediate release as also of Jagga Reddy. He urged authorities to cooperate for successful conduct of Rahul Gandhi's meeting.
It is to mention here that, activists of the Congress-affiliated student wing, NSUI and Youth Congress, were arrested on Sunday when they held protests at Osmania University and the Ministers' Quarters here. They demanded the State government to permit AICC leader Rahul Gandhi to visit Osmania University and participate in a meeting with students. The police also took TPCC working president T Jagga Reddy into preventive custody, when he visited the Banjara Police Station to inquire about NSUI activists' arrests.
Condemning the arrests of the party senior leader, NSUI and Youth Congress activists, Telangana senior leader and AICC spokesperson Sravan stressed that the government has been stooping to new lows by arresting innocent students again and again.
Sravan fired the government for denying permission for Congress senior leader Rahul Gandhi's meeting with students on Osmania University campus. He questioned "Why is KCR and KTR company fearing Rahul Gandhi so much?.
