Hyderabad: The TDP today demanded that Andhra Pradesh Labour Minister Danam Nagender be immediately removed from the state Cabinet, against whom, a criminal case has been filed for allegedly abusing police officers on duty and locking up the main gate of a temple at Banjara Hills here yesterday.
"Nagender should be arrested first and removed from the Cabinet forthwith for behaving like a street rowdy and inciting people to indulge in illegal acts," Telugu Desam Party (TDP) senior leader and former Mayor Teegala Krishna Reddy said.
Talking to newsmen at the party headquarters this afternoon, Mr Teegala said, Nagender had hurt the religious sentiments of Hindus by locking up the temple gate.
Danam Nagender accompanied by his supporters went to the temple yesterday and locked up the main gate and prevented the Hare Krishna Movement people and temple priests from entering in. When police tried to prevent Nagender, he abused and threatened them with dire consequences.
Nagender, however, sought to defend his illegitimate act saying he was fighting on behalf of the people who were his constituents.
TDP general secretary Varla Ramaiah also demanded immediate arrest of the "rowdy minister".
