Telangana, Dec 04, 2018 : Revanth Reddy, a top Congress leader in Telangana and the party’s candidate from Kodangal, was detained before dawn today for threatening to stop a public meeting of caretaker chief minister K Chandrashekhar Rao in the constituency.

 

A police team barged into Revanth Reddy’s home around 3 am, when the family was sleeping, according to his wife.

"Around 3 am some people knocked on our door and broke it open and forced themselves in. My husband and I were sleeping in the room along with our daughter. Are we terrorists that they should treat us like this?" said Geetha Reddy.
