The Telugu Desam Party (TDP) hinted, on Monday, that the party would not take the
attack by the TRS on the convoy of former chief minister N Chandrababu Naidu lying down.
Former Hyderabad mayor Teegala Krishna Reddy told media persons that the party has taken the stone-pelting incident seriously. He said that the Congress and the TRS are but 2 sides of the same coin.
Krishna Reddy said, "If the trend of attacks on TDP men continues, then we are ready to pay back in their own coin."
He added, "The Congress and the TRS are collaborating with each other to vilify the TDP across the state."
In addition to this, the former mayor hit out against the TRS Chief K Chandrasekhar Rao, saying that TRS president has been duping the people of Telangana in the name of separate statehood since the past one decade.
The former Mayor challenged the TRS chief to stage protests in front of the AICC President, Sonia Gandhi's residence.
Accusing the state government of being in deep slumber, Krishna Reddy said that it is time the government woke up and started acting tough against the vandals who take law into their own hands.
Later, protesters tried to march up to the Assembly premises, prompting the police to intercept and arrest them.
