War has begun against BRS govt: Kishan Reddy

Hyderabad High drama prevailed here on Thursday as Union Minister and Telangana BJP president G Kishan Reddy along with other party leaders sat on the road after being stopped by police from proceeding to inspect a BRS government housing site.

Taking strong exception to the police action against him and other party leaders who were put under "house arrest", Reddy declared that "the war has begun" against the BRS government. With Reddy calling for a visit to the site of a government housing complex with double bedroom homes meant for the poor at Batasingaram here, the day began with police putting several BJP leaders either under "house arrest" or taken into preventive custody. Reddy, who condemned the police action against his party leaders in a tweet, landed at the Rajiv Gandhi International Airport here from Delhi and was heading straight to the construction site, but was stopped at the Outer Ring Road.
