Jagan Mohan Reddy Questions Andhra Pradesh Law and Order Over Ganja Found in Police Vehicle
Vijayawada: YSR Congress Party (YSRCP) president and former Andhra Pradesh Chief Minister YS Jagan Mohan Reddy has raised serious questions over the state’s law-and-order situation following an incident involving two police Sub-Inspectors in Prakasam district.
The controversy began after a car carrying the two police officers was involved in an accident at Sankhavarappadu in Addanki mandal. According to reports, the vehicle was involved in a collision with an auto-rickshaw, leaving people travelling in the auto injured.
Jagan alleged that ganja, liquor bottles and a police uniform were found inside the vehicle after the accident. He questioned how such substances could allegedly be present in a vehicle linked to police personnel responsible for preventing illegal drug and liquor transportation.
Jagan Seeks Impartial Investigation
In a post on X, Jagan criticised the Andhra Pradesh government and questioned whether people could expect impartial policing if allegations of illegal activity involved members of the police force.
He also alleged that the two Sub-Inspectors were in an intoxicated condition after the accident. These claims are allegations raised by Jagan and have not been independently established in the available reports.
The YSRCP chief further alleged that people at the scene recorded videos of the incident. He claimed that another police officer who arrived later warned them against filming and threatened them with legal action.
Political Angle Emerges
Jagan also referred to allegations of links between the police personnel and local Telugu Desam Party (TDP) leaders. He claimed that some local TDP leaders allegedly helped the officers leave the scene.
He questioned whether police complaints and investigations could be conducted fairly if such political connections existed.
However, these political allegations remain claims made by the YSRCP chief. They should not be treated as established facts unless confirmed through an official investigation or independent evidence.
Jagan Questions Chandrababu Naidu Government
The former Chief Minister directly questioned the administration of Chief Minister N Chandrababu Naidu, arguing that the reported incident raises broader concerns about accountability within the state police system.
Jagan called for an impartial investigation and demanded action against anyone found responsible, regardless of their position or political connections.
The issue has added another point of confrontation between the ruling TDP-led government and the opposition YSRCP. Law and order has remained a politically sensitive issue in Andhra Pradesh, with both sides frequently accusing each other of failures in governance and policing.
What Happened in the Prakasam District Incident?
- A car carrying two police Sub-Inspectors was reportedly involved in an accident at Sankhavarappadu.
- An auto-rickshaw was involved in the collision, with passengers reportedly suffering injuries.
- Ganja and liquor bottles were reportedly found in the police vehicle.
