YSRCP seeks probe into SE's death at official meeting

Tadepalli: Squarely blaming the coalition government for the death of GVMC Superintendent Engineer Govinda Rao in Visakhapatnam, YSRCP has demanded a judicial inquiry into the death.

Speaking to media here on Friday, president of YSRCP Employees and Pensioners Division Nalamaru Chandrasekhar said the engineer collapsed and died during a review meeting in which TDP leader and Swachh Andhra Corporation Chairman Pattabhi humiliated him causing the disaster.

Pattabhi refused to take answers given by the officer and had behaved in an arrogant way and his highhandedness was the sole reason for the death of the employee, he alleged.

The engineer collapsed and was pronounced dead on being taken to hospital.

Chief Minister N Chandrababu Naidu has shown similar arrogance during Janmabhoomi meetings earlier.

YSRCP Visakha district president KK Raju also blamed the highhanded behaviour of Pattabhi at the review meeting for the untimely death of the SE.
