A BRS leader on Wednesday called out the unruly behaviour of a Congress MP Mallu Ravi for assaulting a Dalit MLA, Vijayudu, for breaking the coconut. He further attacked the Congress party over preaching the Constitution when its leader behaves in such a manner.
BRS leader Manne Krishank shared a video of the incident on his social media and stated that the assault on BRS MLA Vijayadu might be because he exposed the Rs 8 crore extortion by AICC Secretary Sampath.
Taking to X, Krishank wrote, “Unruly behaviour by Congress MP Mallu Ravi assaulting first time Dalit MLA Vijayudu. ‘Who are you to break the coconut’ blasts the Congress MP. When a Dalit behaves in this way to another Dalit, then Congress loses moral right to preach about Constitution."
“Is it because MLA Vijayudu exposed Rs 8 crore extortion by AICC Secretary Sampath," he questioned.
