Gannavaram in Krishna district of Andhra Pradesh turned into a political battlefield with men belonging to the ruling YSR Congress Party (YSRCP) vandalising the opposition Telugu Desam Party (TDP) office in the town.
On Monday (20 February) evening, supporters of Gannavaram MLA Vallabhaneni Vamsi targeted TDP office, vandalised it and set a car on fire in the premises of TDP party office.
Activists of TDP later stalled the traffic on Chennai - Kolkata national highway for a long time as a protest against the attack by the ruling party.
According to a report by The Hindu, a large number of activists of both parties allegedly attacked each other with sticks and stones.
Condemning the political violence against his party, TDP President N Chandrababu Naidu alleged that there is no peace and security in Andhra Pradesh under CM Jaganmohan Reddy’s rule.

“Did you close the police department? Or merged with YSRCP? These incidents are an example of CM Jagan’s factionist mentality. The state governor should intervene immediately. Strict action should be taken against the culprits,” former CM Chandrababu Naidu said.

Introducing ElectionsHQ + 50 Ground Reports Project
The 2024 elections might seem easy to guess, but there are some important questions that shouldn't be missed.
Do freebies still sway voters? Do people prioritise infrastructure when voting? How will Punjab vote?
The answers to these questions provide great insights into where we, as a country, are headed in the years to come.
Swarajya is starting a project with an aim to do 50 solid ground stories and a smart commentary service on WhatsApp, a one-of-a-kind. We'd love your support during this election season.
