Hastinapuram: Revanth Mitramandali staged a protest over the arrest of the Member of Parliament and Telangana Congress Working President A Revanth Reddy, near Ambedkar statue here on Sunday. Mitramandali leader Madhusudhan equated the arrest as murder of democracy. He criticised state government for booking illegal case against the MP.

It may be recalled that Revanth Reddy was arrested by the Cyberabad police on Thursday and sent to judicial remand for 14 days. The arrest was in connection with a suo motu case filed by the Cyberabad police against the Malkajgiri MP for violating privacy by taking photographs and visuals of a farmhouse allegedly owned by Minister K T Rama Rao in Janwada village on the outskirts of Hyderabad.

The Congress MP was booked along with ten other persons on Wednesday by the police for allegedly hiring a drone for a photoshoot of the private premises and releasing it to the media. Revanth, who was in Delhi at the time the case was booked, arrived in Hyderabad post-noon on Thursday and "surrendered" at Narsangi police station.

The agitators said the dictatorial style of rule of the government would come to an end soon. Merugu Ramesh Reddy, D Shashidhar Reddy, Shivakumar, Bhargav, Lingam Goud, Prudhvi, Devender, Kiran Naik, Sai, Srinivas, Narayana Reddy, Jagadish, Srikanth, Chinna and others were present.
