KTR slams Congress over Allu Arjun's arrest, calls it 'unwarranted'

Taking a dig at the Congress government, Rao called the arrest of the National Award-winning actor, a peak display of the rulers' insecurity.

"I totally sympathise with the victims of the stampede but who failed really? Treating Allu Arjun Garu as a common criminal is uncalled for, especially for something he isn't directly responsible for," Rao said on the social media platform 'X'.

Rao emphasised the need for "respect" and "dignified conduct," while condemning the government's alleged high-handed behaviour.

The city police arrested Allu Arjun in connection with the death of a woman during the premiere of his latest film, 'Pushpa 2', official sources said.
