Thousands Protest In Jangaon For New District Status

Thousands of people protested and clogged the roads in Jangaon protesting the area's exclusion from the list of Telangana's proposed new districts.
Hyderabad | 19th August 2016
Thousands of protestors today blocked the roads in Jangaon of the Warangal district protesting the area not featuring in the list of new districts that are set to be carved out in October.

People from the town and its surrounding mandals came in droves and blocked the RTC crossroads. This prompted the police personnel to take 10 persons who were leading the agitation into temporary custody.

Another group of many youth wing leaders led by JAC chairman Arutla Dashamanth Reddy then stormed the RTC crossroads and altercated with the police. This led to the police arresting around 200 JAC youth wing leaders and calling for reinforcements from the Jangaon, Mahabubabad, Narsampet, Eturunagaram and other police stations to control the situation.

The tensions kept building as the restless mob jammed the roads.

The cry for district status for Jangaon has been trenchant and growing louder since the Sadhana Committee and the people of the town took to the streets during a signature campaign to achieve the same in July 2016.
