TRS national spokesperson
“The Home Minister, unfortunately in the state of Telangana today, is the Chief Minister himself. So he should resign if he cannot even act on one of his own. The DGP should also resign if he cannot act on one of his own. The Cyber Crime Chief, Ms Shikha Goel, should also resign if she cannot even suspend... and mind you, it cannot stop on suspension. This man needs to be arrested, and we will not stop until that happens.”

“The comment that has been brought to our notice is absolutely disgusting, irrespective of who the person uploading the particular comment is. And more so because this person is wearing the uniform of the Telangana police. He is a cop and, mind you, the most violent and the most dangerous predator is one who's wearing a uniform and has full legal sanctioned authority and protection.”
