Further speaking about the recent raids, the minister stated that 29 cases were booked against the petrol bunk managements in Tirupati, Guntur and Visakhapatnam. Similarly, 309 cases against the shopping malls and 89 cases against the fertilizer shops were registered, he added. About Bharat Rashtra Samithi floated by KCR, the minister said such parties will not come in the way of YSRCP's victory in the next elections.
