Protest held outside Rahul Gandhi's residence against attack on journalists in Telangana

A group of journalists staged a demonstration outside the Leader of the Opposition (LoP) in Lok Sabha Rahul Gandhi’s residence in the capital on Monday, August 26, to register their protest against rising incidents of assault on the scribes in Telangana. 

The protesting scribes from Telangana waved placards and posters to highlight multiple incidents of violence



against the fraternity and also the state government’s ‘apathy’ in such cases.

The protest outside the Congress MP’s residence comes in the backdrop of the assault of two journalists in Telangana Chief Minister Revanth Reddy’s native village, Kondareddypalli, in Nagarkurnool district, where they came under attack by ‘ruffians with political blessings’, last week.
