Harish Rao Condemns Police Action Against Social Activists in Lagacharla
BRS MLA T Harish Rao has strongly criticized the recent police action against social activists visiting Lagacharla for a fact-finding mission. He described it as a deliberate attempt to suppress the truth about the injustices faced by tribal communities in the region.
Harish Rao called the incident a blatant violation of democratic values. He accused Chief Minister A Revanth Reddy of running an oppressive and undemocratic government. “It is outrageous that social activists, including POW leader Sandhya and other women members, are being obstructed by the police. This clearly shows the government’s intent to prevent the truth from coming to light,” he said.
In a sharp critique, Harish Rao questioned the Chief Minister’s promises of democratic governance. “Revanth Reddy garu, is this your seventh guarantee of democratic governance? You promised a rule free from restrictions, barricades, and suppression, but not a single day passes under your government without these actions,” he remarked.
He further accused the government of resorting to intimidation and suppression tactics. “How many people will you stop to hide the truth about the injustice to the tribal children of Lagacharla? How many voices will you silence with false cases? This is not governance—it is oppression,” Harish Rao said, calling on the government to uphold democratic values and address the concerns of the tribal communities.
