Jagan urges legal fraternity to lead fight against 'misuse of power' by TDP-led govt
YSRCP chief Y S Jagan Mohan Reddy on Tuesday called upon lawyers to spearhead the fight against what he alleged was a "dangerous misuse of power " by the TDP-led NDA government in Andhra Pradesh. Addressing a meeting of the YSRCP legal cell at the party headquarters in Tadepalli, Reddy urged advocates to stand with victims and lead efforts to uphold justice amid what he described as growing political repression .

Innocent people are being jailed without evidence, and false cases are being filed for political reasons. Lawyers must take the lead in fighting for justice," Reddy claimed. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Villas Prices In Dubai Might Be More Affordable Than You Think Villas In Dubai | Search Ads Get Quote Undo He described the current situation as extraordinary and said it placed greater responsibility on the legal community. Reddy accused the government, led by Chief Minister N Chandrababu Naidu, of "trampling on justice and ethics, and of jailing political opponents without due process." He also alleged that confessions were being extracted through threats and bribes, and falsified evidence was being created. Live Events Calling the YSRCP's legal cell the party's "pillar of strength", Reddy said justice cannot be expected unless petitions are filed and arguments are made in court. He assured the legal fraternity that their efforts would be recognised and remembered by the party. The former chief minister recalled the initiatives taken for lawyers during the previous YSRCP regime, including the allocation of Rs 100 crore to the Advocates Welfare Fund and the government's contribution towards one-third of their insurance premiums. He also cited the 'Law Nestham' scheme, which provided financial support to young advocates, and noted that reservations were extended to backward-class lawyers in legal jobs. Reddy alleged that the current government had betrayed the legal community, comparing it to what he called "false" election promises like the 'Super Six' schemes. Accusing the TDP-led government of widespread corruption, Reddy claimed illegal liquor shops , known as "belt shops", were operating in every village. He also alleged that liquor was being sold above the maximum retail price and that large commissions were being collected in construction contracts, with mobilisation advances being misused. "While the YSRCP government signed power purchase agreements at Rs 2.49 per unit, the current government is signing them at Rs 4.60," Reddy claimed, adding that entrepreneurs were being forced to pay bribes even to start small businesses or industries. He further alleged that some police officers were actively supporting gambling clubs and other unlawful activities. Reddy also announced that the party would soon launch a mobile app that would allow citizens to report injustices and upload supporting evidence. "This data will be stored in a digital library and will help initiate action against those misusing power," he claimed. There was no immediate response from the ruling Telugu Desam Party.

847 kg of ganja worth ₹4.2 crore seized in Telangana; 2 held
Hyderabad, The Elite Action Group for Drug Law Enforcement on Tuesday said it has dismantled a major interstate ganja trafficking network, seizing 847 kilograms of high-grade ganja valued at over ₹4.2 crore in the illicit market and arrested two habitual offenders from Odisha. 847 kg of ganja worth ₹ 4.2 crore seized in Telangana; 2 held The operation is one of the largest and most precise anti-drug actions of 2025, targeting a supply corridor running from Malkangiri to Uttar Pradesh via Telangana and Karnataka, Superintendent of Police Ch Rupesh said. Based on credible intelligence, teams intercepted a pick-up vehicle near Shamshabad road near here on August 4 and seized 847 kg of ganja from the vehicle, and arrested the two persons Khilla Dhana and Rajendar B. According to an official release, Ramesh Sukri operated as the central coordinator from Malkangiri, linked to both arrested accused through their village network. His associate, Jagadish Kuldeep, procured bulk ganja from cultivators like Shibo and Basu in remote forest areas, they said. Ten days ago, the syndicate's primary buyer, Shaffiq from Uttar Pradesh, personally handed over the pick-up vehicle to Ramesh, instructing that it be loaded with 800 kg of ganja and delivered to UP by handing over at Shamshabad, it said. The syndicate's method was precise: ganja was first moved in small loads from fields to safe village outskirts, then repacked in bags containing brown-tape-wrapped packets to mask odour. Drivers used Bengaluru National Highway and Outer Ring Road bypasses to avoid checkpoints and handovers were arranged at city outskirts to minimise exposure, the release said. Communication was restricted to basic feature phones with fresh SIMs, discarded after trips. For security, Khilla carried a sword hidden among the bags. This system had allowed the syndicate to complete multiple large deliveries without interception - until the Elite Action Group for Drug Law Enforcement's action ended their run, it said. This action has crippled a major ganja supply route to North India, the release said, adding efforts are underway to nab the absconding accused. Financial investigation and property attachment proceedings will be initiated under the NDPS Act and BNSS, it said.
