Chandrababu: Mudragada's Deeksha adds on to problems in AP

With Kapu leader Mudragada Padmanabham taking up an indefinite hunger strike demanding the release of those arrested in connection with the Ratnachal Express burning case in Tuni, the move has come forth as a regret for Andhra Pradesh Chief Minister Chandrababu Naidu.

Addressing the media on Thursday, Chandrababu said that the Deeksha would only add to the problems in the state following the split of the united AP. The Chief Minister further said that his government is working towards fulfilling the promises made for all the sections of people and has also appointed a commission to preview the reservations for Kapus among the Backward Classes.

Stating that he is open to conceding the Kapu demands, he said that the state government was already moving in the direction. Responding to the police arresting the people involved in the Tuni violence, Chandrababu said that outside forces were involved and the government was entrusted to maintain law and order in the state.
