Chilakaluripet MLA Vidadala Rajini has enjoyed a great clout during YCP regime being minister of the district and having direct access to party top leadership. It may be recalled that present deputy speaker Raghuramakrishnam Raju alleged that when he was resorted to custodial torture during YCP regime, the same was showed to the then CM YS Jaganmohan Reddy through mobile by senior police officers.
It seems, Rajini also followed her leader in true spirit. According to a complaint lodged with Palnadu SP Kanchi Srinivasarao by Chilakaluripet ITDP leaders, during the YCP regime they were illegally arrested and tortured at the police station asking them to keep away from TDP. Moreover, they accused that while torturing them, the police made a live telecast over a WhatsApp call to the minister Rajini.
Along with former minister Vidadala Rajini, ITDP leaders have also complained against her PA Ramakrishna and Jaya Phanindra Kumar, as well as Suryanarayana, who previously worked as the Chilakaluripet Urban CI.
They have alleged in the complaint that false allegations were made against them for posting morphing posts against the government on social media during the previous government’s tenure. They have alleged that they were illegally detained and harassed.
Chilakaluripet constituency ITDP president Pilli Koteswara Rao in his complaint alleged that they used to show the videos on WhatsApp to Vidadala Rajini and her PAs, while torturing them. He urged them to register a case against them and take suitable action for their misuse of power during the previous regime.
On the other hand, the police are currently cracking down on those who post obscene and objectionable posts on social media across Andhra Pradesh. Cases are being registered against those who post inappropriate posts on political leaders as well as women in their families. Arrests are also being made in many places. In this context, the Palnadu SP has received this complaint against former minister Vidadala Rajini and it is interesting to see how he will move forward in this case.
