Hyderabad, Jan 4: BJP President JP Nadda will visit Hyderabad on Tuesday to attend a candlelight rally to protest against the arrest of BJP Telangana state president Bandi Sanjay Kumar.
“BJP President JP Nadda will participate in Candlelight Rally in Hyderabad on 4th January 2022 at 5 PM in the protest of the illegal arrest of BJP Telangana President Bandi Sanjay Kumar. Rally is organized from Mahatma Gandhi statue, Secunderabad, to Paradise X Roads,” tweeted BJP Telangana.
Notably, Karimnagar police arrested Sanjay Kumar on Sunday evening during a protest. He was sent to 14-day judicial custody on Monday.
The arrest came after Kumar was taken into custody by police while he was holding a protest in Karimnagar. Earlier, Nadda had called the arrest of Kumar as the ‘murder of democracy’.
Meanwhile, Union Minister G Kishan Reddy also said that the arrest of Telangana BJP chief Bandi Sanjay is politically motivated and completely undemocratic.
“He was protesting peacefully in his office following all the COVID protocols. Police forcibly entered the office and arrested him,” he said.
