He was also stopped from garlanding the statues of BR Ambedkar and Jagjivan Ram.<\/p>\n<p>The former minister insisted that along with Sawang, a few other police officers too were expecting MLA tickets from YSRCP. The TDP leader also demanded answers from police regarding any action taken against YSRCP leaders who took out rallies.<\/p>\n<p>Jawahar even took a dig at AP police saying he doubted whether he was in AP or Pakistan, adding that police were enforcing YCP rules instead of IPC. He poked fun at the ruling party saying they were resorting to looting, hiding and sharing. \u201cNo matter how many cases are filed, there is no going back,\u201d the former minister said. He will reportedly file private cases against the atrocities carried out by the police on members of the opposition.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Telugu Desam Party leaders are continuing to criticize the performance of the police in the state.
