YSRCP leader demands probe into medico Priyanka's death
A young medical student named Priyanka died in a city called Rajamahendravaram.
Her death happened on August 3, but people only found out about it a few days later.
A politician named Margani Bharat Ram asked the government to investigate what really happened.
He said the police first treated the incident like a simple road accident.
He said police officials called it a minor accident.
But Bharat said something much more serious may have happened.
He said a car hit the scooter Priyanka was riding and then drove over her head.
He also asked why no one was arrested for three days.
He wants the police to check phone records of an officer and calls made near a mall.
He asked the Chief Minister to look into the case, and his party says it will stand by Priyanka's family until the facts are established.
Former MP and YSRCP spokesperson Margani Bharat Ram demanded a comprehensive probe into the death of medico Priyanka.
The incident occurred on August 3 in Rajamahendravaram but was not brought into the public domain until August 6.
Bharat questioned why the arrest was made only three days later and whether the accused were absconding or in custody.
The case was initially treated as a road accident with a rash and negligent driving charge, and the DSP described it as a minor accident.
Bharat alleged the car hit the scooter Priyanka was travelling on and ran over her head, while her family sought the call data of investigating CI Baji Lal.
