The Chief Minister said he believes the state



police, who announced that they arrested Sanjay Kumar's son Bageerath during a 'nakabandi' (police checkpoint). "When injustice happened to a minor girl (in the POCSO case), where is the Leader of Opposition (Chandrasekhar Rao) sleeping? If he does not have the capacity to come out and speak, he should at least issue a press release. 

He will go to Jagtial to admit a leader from another party into BRS. But, such a major incident happens in the state, and the main opposition leader does not even respond," Reddy told reporters here.
