Narasaraopet, Jan. 15 -- YSR Congress party senior leader and former MLA Kasu Mahesh Reddy alleged on Thursday that some Telugu Desam party leaders were involved in the recent murder of his party activist Salman under the protection of local police. This he said "exposed the complete collapse of law and order in Andhra Pradesh".
Talking to the media here, the former MLA alleged the attack took place with the backing of ruling party MLA Yarapathineni Srinivas Rao and Dachepalli Circle Inspector Ponnuru Bhaskar.
