Kapu's Temporarily Withdraws Agitation
The Kapu reservation agitation launched in Tuni in East Godavari district by the former minister Mudragada Padmanabham took a violent turn with thousands of supporters setting a train and a police station on fire.
After blocking national highway for the whole night Mudhragadda Padmanabham finally withdrew his agitation. Mudhragadda who was blocking national highway with his vehicle since morning, announced withdrawing the agitation.
He set a deadline till Monday afternoon for government to fulfill its promise. He threatened to sit for a fast unto death if the promise is not kept by then. The motto of this is a demand for immediate solution to the long-pending reservation issue.
With situation going out of control, additional forces were rushed to the tuni region. Chief Minister N. Chandrababu Naidu called an emergency meeting of his cabinet colleagues and top officials in Vijayawada.
