The situation in Srikakulam which is known for its history of political revolution has turned tense. The news of the sudden arrest of AP TDP Chief Kinjarapu Atchannaidu by the police on Tuesday morning has heated up the political scenario in the district, with the TDP cadre alleging that Atchannaidu’s arrest is unfair and unjustified. On the other hand, several TDP leaders who tried to visit Atchannaidu have been house arrested. However, the YSRCP has denied their involvement in the arrest of the AP TDP Chief and blamed the Election Commission for the political developments.

From there the TDP leader was taken to the closest health care centre for Covid19 tests and from there to court.
