If You Attack ABN, We Will Attack Telangana Bhavan

There are rumours of BRS planning to attack ABN Andhrajyothy office doing rounds in Hyderabad. Reacting to it, BJP leader Bandi Sanjay has threatened BRS of counter attack, if they go ahead with the plan.

Union Minister of State Bandi Sanjay spoke to media and shared that the recently elected BJP state president N Ramchander Rao has directed BJP’s youth wing (BJYM) to attack Telangana Bhavan, in case the BRS cadre attacks ABN office.

Bandi Sanjay said if ABN office is attacked, within two hours, the BRS office would be attacked. You bring your cadre, we will bring ours, said Bandi.

Reacting to the rumours, N Ramchander Rao said that BRS was rejected by the people of Telangana. Still, the party leadership was behaving irresponsibly. He said attacking media offices was unlawful and undemocratic.

He asked the state government to provide protection to media houses and said freedom of press was the cornerstone of democracy.

He asked the BJYM members to be alert if such an attack were to take place. Rao also said that any grievances against media reporting must be addressed through legal channels, not violence.

Rao warned that if BRS attacks any media organisation, it will be the end of their own news channels like T News. It’s not a threat, it is a warning in defense of democracy, said Ramchander Rao.
