A little background
Reddy was heading to Pragati Bhavan to protest an attack on her by alleged TRS workers yesterday.
High drama broke out on Monday when the leader of the YSR Telangana Party was detained when she was conducting a padyatra (foot march). Her party's employees and those of the TRS engaged in conflict at the village of Lingagiri, which is part of the Chennaraopeta block of the Warangal district. Following the clashes, Y S Sharmila was arrested in Telangana’s Warangal district on Monday. The police took her into custody and shifted her to Hyderabad.
Her party members obstructed traffic and organised a protest, which required the police to use force to scatter them. To raise awareness of the hardship of people in Telangana, Sharmila said that she has been on a padayatra for the last 223 days in a nonviolent and peaceful manner.
Sharmila had alleged that Reddy had been extorting money from people and indulging in land grabbing and threatening contractors. She said even Telangana CM KCR's wife has been acting like a de facto MLA and has resorted to land grabbing. "They are not leaving even an inch of land in the constituency. Why should the people vote for such people?” she questioned KCR, as reported by Hindustan Times.
