Following the incident, Mr Goud and hundreds of TD supporters reached Sanathnagar police station and staged a protest demanding action against the TRS supporters who tried to create trouble and defame them by making allegations of distributing cash. The mob dispersed only after the police assured to take necessary action. “Around 7 pm when I was going to Czech Colony, three persons followed me on three unregistered bikes and intercepted my car, saying that I was carrying money to be distributed to the residents. They were associates of Mr Talasani Srinivas Yadav. They wanted to put some cash in my car and trap me in police case. I alerted the police through Dial 100,” stated Narsimha in his complaint to the Sanathnagar police. Based on the complaint, the police registered a case under sections 341 and 290 of IPC and has started investigation.
