Police Assn indulging in politics: Varla

PNS|Amaravati

Member of the TDP politburo, Varla Ramaiah, on Tuesday questioned the leaders of the Andhra Pradesh Police Welfare Association as to why they are indulging in politics instead of striving for the welfare of the police personnel.

When the ruling party leaders use highly objectionable language, these police welfare association leaders are keeping mum but when the Opposition party leaders criticise the ruling party leaders, these association leaders are highly critical of them, Varla Ramaiah told media persons here. Why these association leaders, who always claim that they strictly go by the law, do not dare to question the CID chief, Sunil Kumar, who totally violates the law, he asked.

When the police officials suffer from different issues, these leaders do not open their mouths but when someone criticises the ruling party leaders, they come out openly and this clearly indicates that the Police Welfare Association is only trying to safeguard the interests of the YSRCP leaders, he commented. Varla Ramaiah advised the welfare association leaders not to indulge in politics and invite trouble.

Stating that TDP national president, Nara Chandrababu Naidu, reacted immediately when the party leader, Chengalraidu, used some words against the police officials. Still, the welfare association leaders are trying to politicise the statement made by Chengalraidu though Chandrababu pulled him up immediately, he stated.
