The chief of Telangana unit of the Congress party has claimed that he has been put under house arrest by the state government. "I was ready to go to Parliament but state government deployed police to place me under house arrest. If we raise voices against state government's loot, they book us, arrest us and place us under house arrest. The police said that they were placed under house arrest to maintain law and order, according to news agency PTI. The ruling TRS has rejected the allegations made by Revanth Reddy and said the process was transparent.
