The ‘farmers’ from Amaravati have been on protest for the past nine days in the capital villages. The opposition TDP too had joined them, besides Jana Sena, and they are seen everywhere in the protest.
Any form of protest on Amaravati issue had become fun for the viewers as there are the TDP and Jana Sena activists in large numbers, besides the rich pro-TDP farmers than the real farmers who have sacrificed their lands.
Ironically, these protesters have targeted the media persons on Friday at Uddandarayunipalem. The “protesters” also attacked a woman journalist, both verbal and physical.
The journalists were accused of misrepresenting the facts about their agitation in the capital villages. The “protesters” while chasing the journalists from the venue, asked them to prove whether there were paid artists in the protests.
A woman journalist became a target of these “protesters” who was rescued by fellow journalists and was sent away in a vehicle.
The protesters demanded that the media persons project the protests as that of the farmers and people, but not that of the political parties.
