Overview
- BJP supporters ransacked the Karimnagar camp office of BRS MLA Gangula Kamalakar after BRS legislator P. Kaushik Reddy made remarks about Union minister Bandi Sanjay, and police used a lathicharge to disperse the crowd.
- Kaushik Reddy said the attack was a planned bid to target him and alleged a conspiracy by Bandi Sanjay and Chief Minister A. Revanth Reddy, which the parties he named have not confirmed.
- Separately, farmers from Nadergul in Ranga Reddy district reported that about 373 acres of state land had been taken over by private players, with accounts of attacks and destroyed borewells, and BRS leader T. Harish Rao pressed the district collector and police for action.
- Harish Rao inspected a paddy procurement center and accused the government of slow buying and harsh deductions, citing farmers who said they waited weeks for weighing as rain-damaged heaps of grain sat in market yards.
- BRS leaders used a Warangal convention to demand unconditional crop procurement and a Rs 500 per‑quintal paddy bonus, while a Congress minister countered that the opposition is posturing and claimed the government has stepped up farmer spending.
