NTR District Police Commissioner, Kanthi Rana Tata, on January 21 said that police did not stop Andhra Pradesh Congress Committee (APCC) president, Y.S. Sharmila’s convoy in Vijayawada.
There were reports on a TV channel that the police had stopped Ms. Sharmila’s convoy on the plea that it had no permission. Speaking to the reporters on Sunday, the Police Commissioner said that police allowed Ms. Sharmila’s vehicle and about 20 vehicles following her.
To prevent traffic congestion in Vijayawada, the other vehicles were stopped for some time but were allowed later, Mr. Kranthi Rani said.
