Attack on Sai Dharam Tej During Janasena Campaign in Pithapuram: Rising Tensions in Election Race

With the election campaign reaching its climax, Pawan Kalyan, the leader of Janasena, is pulling out all the stops to win over voters. Contesting from the Pithapuram constituency, he is confident about securing a seat in the Assembly this time around. To boost his efforts, Tollywood actors Varun Tej and Sai Dharam Tej have joined the campaign trail, showing their support for Pawan Kalyan.

Varun Tej campaigned for his uncle last week, while Sai Dharam Tej accompanied Pawan Kalyan for his roadshow in Pithapuram and Machilipatnam. However, the roadshow took a violent turn when Sai Dharam Tej was attacked with glass bottles. During the incident, a fellow Janasainik suffered serious injuries, sustaining a direct hit to the face that caused severe bleeding. He was immediately taken to the hospital for treatment, while others narrowly avoided injury.

This disturbing incident has put a spotlight on the rising tensions in the political arena. Janasena has formed a coalition with the Telugu Desam Party (TDP) and the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) to challenge the ruling Yuvajana Sramika Rythu Congress Party (YSRCP), led by Chief Minister YS Jaganmohan Reddy. The heated electoral battle underscores the lengths to which some are willing to go in the pursuit of power.

As the campaign intensifies, Pawan Kalyan and his supporters remain undeterred, vowing to bring about change in the upcoming Andhra Pradesh Assembly Elections.
