During the voting in the by-election of Jubilee Hills Assembly under Hyderabad, a tense situation arose at the polling booth of Borabanda when a heated argument broke out between the workers of the ruling Congress and the opposition BRS and it soon turned into a clash. This incident once again shows that the political heat regarding the by-elections in the area is at its peak.
BRS candidate Maganti Sunita Gopinath alleged that Congress leaders were forcefully stopping her from setting up a table near the booth. According to him, Congress workers were violating election rules and when they protested, the police took unilateral action. Sunita Gopinath openly accused the police of favoring the Congress party and threatening their workers.
The police calmed down the matter by explaining
She gave a clear warning that she would not tolerate any such behavior that intimidates her workers. However, the police intervened timely and pacified the ongoing dispute between the two parties and brought the situation under control. On the other hand, to ensure transparency and orderliness of the election process, GHMC Commissioner and District Election Officer R.V. Kernan inspected the polling stations set up at Don Bosco School in Erragadda for the Jubilee Hills by-election.
