YSRCP leaders complain to Andhra DGP over ‘offensive’ remarks on Jagan’s family
Accusing JSP supporters of making obscene remarks on social media, they allege that the police failed to register an FIR even 60 hours after receiveing a complaint
A group of YSR Congress Party (YSRCP) leaders lodged a complaint with Andhra Pradesh Director General of Police (DGP) Harish Kumar Gupta on Saturday, accusing Jana Sena Party (JSP) supporters of making obscene and derogatory remarks against party president and former Chief Minister Y.S. Jagan Mohan Reddy’s family members on social media platform X. They also demanded that stringent action be taken.
A YSRCP delegation comprising former Minister Vellampalli Srinivas, MLC Kalpalatha Reddy, former MLA Malladi Vishnu and other senior leaders submitted a pen drive containing evidence to the officials at the DGP’s office, as Mr. Gupta was not available.
Addressing the media, the YSRCP leaders alleged that the Vijayawada cybercrime police did not register an FIR even 60 hours after receiving a complaint, along with evidence in this regard.
Mr. Srinivas questioned the silence of Chief Minister N. Chandrababu Naidu, Deputy Chief Minister K. Pawan Kalyan and Home Minister Vangalapudi Anitha over the issue. Ms. Kalpalatha Reddy condemned the alleged remarks against women in Mr. Jagan Mohan Reddy’s family.
Mr. Vishnu alleged that the police were acting selectively, registering cases against the YSRCP activists even at midnight but failing to act on their complaint.
The YSRCP leaders warned that they would pursue legal action if the police failed to register cases against those responsible.
